Transcript

00:00:22.074 --> 00:00:23.535
Yo, what's up, everybody?

00:00:23.554 --> 00:00:25.335
Y'all should know the deal.

00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:37.601
Everyone, welcome to Thee Empire,

00:00:37.621 --> 00:00:38.421
where we like to engage

00:00:38.442 --> 00:00:40.023
with everyone from pastors to actors,

00:00:40.082 --> 00:00:40.902
rappers to trappers,

00:00:40.942 --> 00:00:42.804
and everybody in between.

00:00:43.405 --> 00:00:44.085
And guess what?

00:00:44.344 --> 00:00:45.786
We have another amazing guest for today.

00:00:45.805 --> 00:00:48.006
You probably didn't even

00:00:48.067 --> 00:00:48.646
understand what I said.

00:00:48.667 --> 00:00:49.707
It doesn't matter, though.

00:00:50.500 --> 00:00:51.661
My name is Antonio D. Miles.

00:00:51.701 --> 00:00:52.661
I'm your host for today.

00:00:53.341 --> 00:00:54.241
And like I said,

00:00:54.262 --> 00:00:55.783
we have another amazing guest.

00:00:56.222 --> 00:00:57.463
She's an artist, educator,

00:00:57.543 --> 00:00:58.363
and so much more.

00:00:58.384 --> 00:00:59.363
And we're going to learn

00:00:59.384 --> 00:01:00.545
about everything that she

00:01:00.604 --> 00:01:02.585
does from her mouth to herself.

00:01:02.646 --> 00:01:03.646
I'm not going to talk about it.

00:01:03.686 --> 00:01:04.507
We're going to hear it from her.

00:01:05.066 --> 00:01:07.707
And that young lady's name is Young Miss.

00:01:07.968 --> 00:01:09.989
Young Miss, welcome to the Young Lady.

00:01:10.509 --> 00:01:11.569
What's going on, guys?

00:01:11.608 --> 00:01:12.450
Thank you for having me.

00:01:13.049 --> 00:01:14.069
Man, so glad to have you.

00:01:14.090 --> 00:01:15.111
How have you been, Young Miss?

00:01:16.031 --> 00:01:16.691
I've been good.

00:01:16.751 --> 00:01:17.311
I'm blessed.

00:01:17.572 --> 00:01:18.451
Busy and blessed.

00:01:19.468 --> 00:01:21.227
Busy is good and blessed is good.

00:01:21.468 --> 00:01:23.188
Yes, definitely both.

00:01:24.209 --> 00:01:24.849
For sure.

00:01:25.028 --> 00:01:25.808
What you been busy with?

00:01:25.828 --> 00:01:26.969
Give us a little update real quick.

00:01:26.989 --> 00:01:28.010
We're going to, yeah, give us a little,

00:01:28.049 --> 00:01:28.790
what you been busy with?

00:01:29.409 --> 00:01:30.790
Well, you know, along with work,

00:01:30.870 --> 00:01:33.430
being an educator is, you're always busy,

00:01:33.671 --> 00:01:34.450
basically.

00:01:34.531 --> 00:01:35.811
There's no getting away from that.

00:01:36.632 --> 00:01:38.451
And then being an artist

00:01:38.471 --> 00:01:39.432
keeps me busy too.

00:01:39.731 --> 00:01:41.572
DJing, just got back from Coachella.

00:01:44.093 --> 00:01:46.274
And just, I have events after,

00:01:46.614 --> 00:01:48.034
one after the other, you know, so.

00:01:48.614 --> 00:01:51.257
Calendar's full, blessed and busy.

00:01:51.856 --> 00:01:53.858
That's congratulations.

00:01:54.438 --> 00:01:54.819
Thank you.

00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:55.200
Thank you.

00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:56.060
Congratulations.

00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:56.941
Because there's people out

00:01:56.980 --> 00:01:58.561
here who wish their calendars were full.

00:01:58.602 --> 00:01:59.162
You know what I mean?

00:01:59.623 --> 00:02:00.003
Right.

00:02:00.082 --> 00:02:00.483
Right.

00:02:00.903 --> 00:02:01.384
Yeah.

00:02:01.804 --> 00:02:02.525
And it's something that you

00:02:02.545 --> 00:02:03.786
want to do and want to be a part of,

00:02:03.846 --> 00:02:04.085
right?

00:02:04.906 --> 00:02:05.727
Yeah, definitely.

00:02:05.807 --> 00:02:06.167
Definitely.

00:02:06.186 --> 00:02:07.328
I always try and make sure I

00:02:08.769 --> 00:02:10.310
fill in those dates when I can.

00:02:11.151 --> 00:02:11.691
That part.

00:02:12.372 --> 00:02:13.292
You know what's one of the things?

00:02:13.331 --> 00:02:14.532
I'm pretty sure you've experienced this.

00:02:14.913 --> 00:02:15.493
Double booked.

00:02:18.149 --> 00:02:19.149
What's your thoughts and

00:02:19.169 --> 00:02:20.628
feelings of ever getting double booked?

00:02:21.969 --> 00:02:24.050
I always try and make sure

00:02:24.070 --> 00:02:25.290
that doesn't happen.

00:02:25.931 --> 00:02:27.012
Like I'm not double booked

00:02:27.032 --> 00:02:29.012
for two events at the same time.

00:02:29.693 --> 00:02:31.432
If it's two events the same day,

00:02:31.612 --> 00:02:32.554
then that's fine.

00:02:32.813 --> 00:02:34.114
We can work that out.

00:02:34.753 --> 00:02:35.895
But being double booked,

00:02:35.914 --> 00:02:36.495
that means you're not

00:02:36.534 --> 00:02:37.495
looking at your calendar.

00:02:37.875 --> 00:02:38.355
That part.

00:02:38.376 --> 00:02:39.536
Yeah, that's it.

00:02:40.116 --> 00:02:41.657
You got to make sure, you know.

00:02:42.217 --> 00:02:43.217
I feel like it happens every

00:02:43.277 --> 00:02:43.758
once in a while.

00:02:43.777 --> 00:02:44.358
You slip up.

00:02:44.377 --> 00:02:45.298
You're like, damn it.

00:02:46.418 --> 00:02:46.957
Yeah.

00:02:47.038 --> 00:02:48.258
Yeah, it does happen.

00:02:48.278 --> 00:02:49.718
You be like, oh, yeah, I'm free that day.

00:02:49.778 --> 00:02:51.479
And you look back like, oh, sorry.

00:02:51.558 --> 00:02:52.719
You know, it's like, dang.

00:02:52.740 --> 00:02:54.180
And then like, OK,

00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:55.060
here's a good question for you.

00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:55.199
Like,

00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.700
so how do you determine like say you

00:02:58.920 --> 00:03:00.461
wanted you both both events, right?

00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:00.981
Both gigs.

00:03:01.442 --> 00:03:02.342
How do you determine which

00:03:02.421 --> 00:03:03.021
one you had to let go?

00:03:05.288 --> 00:03:07.330
Oh, most of the time,

00:03:07.371 --> 00:03:08.771
if I'm not getting paid for one,

00:03:08.812 --> 00:03:10.233
that's the one I got to let go.

00:03:11.794 --> 00:03:14.336
Yeah, it's business first every time.

00:03:14.356 --> 00:03:15.437
That part.

00:03:15.557 --> 00:03:16.538
I really want to do it.

00:03:16.598 --> 00:03:18.319
It's like, oh, I'm sorry.

00:03:18.340 --> 00:03:19.461
You know, let's reschedule.

00:03:20.281 --> 00:03:20.782
That part.

00:03:20.842 --> 00:03:21.562
It's like 500 or 5,000.

00:03:21.681 --> 00:03:22.802
I don't know.

00:03:22.823 --> 00:03:23.963
Y'all tell me.

00:03:23.984 --> 00:03:24.465
I don't know.

00:03:26.126 --> 00:03:26.645
Wow.

00:03:27.606 --> 00:03:28.087
I feel you.

00:03:28.127 --> 00:03:28.568
I feel you.

00:03:28.627 --> 00:03:29.147
Hey, man,

00:03:29.949 --> 00:03:31.629
these lights don't stay on by themselves.

00:03:32.170 --> 00:03:32.811
That part.

00:03:33.092 --> 00:03:34.012
Yeah, definitely.

00:03:34.092 --> 00:03:34.532
Definitely.

00:03:35.461 --> 00:03:35.782
Awesome.

00:03:35.822 --> 00:03:36.562
So young miss.

00:03:37.562 --> 00:03:37.782
Yeah.

00:03:37.983 --> 00:03:38.223
Connie,

00:03:38.242 --> 00:03:39.623
can you please tell everybody who

00:03:39.644 --> 00:03:40.663
you are and the things that

00:03:40.683 --> 00:03:41.663
you do for people who may

00:03:41.683 --> 00:03:42.504
not know who you are and

00:03:42.525 --> 00:03:43.185
the things that you do?

00:03:44.504 --> 00:03:44.885
Yes.

00:03:45.145 --> 00:03:46.586
Um, my name is Connie Clark,

00:03:46.665 --> 00:03:48.187
but everybody calls me young miss.

00:03:48.606 --> 00:03:50.647
Um, as I said, I'm an educator.

00:03:50.668 --> 00:03:52.889
Um, got my master's in education.

00:03:52.908 --> 00:03:55.008
Um, I'm a life skills teacher,

00:03:55.068 --> 00:03:56.229
which is special education.

00:03:56.250 --> 00:04:00.290
And I'm also an artist, um, sing, rap, DJ,

00:04:00.311 --> 00:04:00.350
um,

00:04:02.207 --> 00:04:04.049
juggle, tap dance.

00:04:04.109 --> 00:04:05.670
I don't do all that, but you feel me?

00:04:05.931 --> 00:04:07.472
I like to do a little bit of everything.

00:04:07.491 --> 00:04:10.514
I can't dance though.

00:04:10.533 --> 00:04:11.254
I got two left feet.

00:04:12.735 --> 00:04:12.996
Dang.

00:04:13.015 --> 00:04:14.076
Can you at least sidestep?

00:04:14.877 --> 00:04:15.138
Oh, yeah.

00:04:15.157 --> 00:04:16.598
I can two-step all day.

00:04:16.699 --> 00:04:18.259
Okay.

00:04:18.699 --> 00:04:19.540
That's it, right?

00:04:20.021 --> 00:04:20.482
Yeah.

00:04:20.601 --> 00:04:20.942
Got you.

00:04:21.422 --> 00:04:23.343
So no salsa dancing with you

00:04:23.384 --> 00:04:23.863
and your partner?

00:04:23.884 --> 00:04:24.704
No salsa dancing?

00:04:25.245 --> 00:04:25.966
Oh, you know.

00:04:26.005 --> 00:04:28.067
Yeah, I can do a little salsa.

00:04:28.086 --> 00:04:28.528
Okay.

00:04:28.548 --> 00:04:28.767
Okay.

00:04:29.817 --> 00:04:30.797
Little son, son.

00:04:30.877 --> 00:04:32.098
So maybe after, you know,

00:04:32.117 --> 00:04:32.898
a little drink or two.

00:04:33.218 --> 00:04:33.899
That's what I'm saying.

00:04:33.918 --> 00:04:34.298
Hey,

00:04:34.538 --> 00:04:36.298
just get a couple of mimosas or

00:04:36.338 --> 00:04:37.120
whatever you do.

00:04:37.339 --> 00:04:39.680
A couple margaritas.

00:04:39.721 --> 00:04:39.980
Yep.

00:04:41.860 --> 00:04:42.180
Yep.

00:04:42.822 --> 00:04:44.182
That's what it's about.

00:04:44.841 --> 00:04:45.562
That's what it's about.

00:04:45.583 --> 00:04:46.343
You know,

00:04:48.944 --> 00:04:50.963
there's a famous jazz song that's

00:04:51.084 --> 00:04:53.845
called Why Musicians Can't Dance.

00:04:54.706 --> 00:04:55.545
Just reminded me of that.

00:04:56.641 --> 00:04:56.860
Really,

00:04:56.901 --> 00:04:58.322
I'm going to have to listen to that.

00:04:58.341 --> 00:04:59.562
It's probably the story of my life.

00:05:00.442 --> 00:05:00.824
That part.

00:05:00.843 --> 00:05:01.524
It's like, oh.

00:05:02.545 --> 00:05:03.845
I thought it sounded kind of interesting,

00:05:03.886 --> 00:05:05.927
but at least you can make

00:05:05.966 --> 00:05:07.148
the music to make people dance.

00:05:07.168 --> 00:05:07.827
You know what I'm saying?

00:05:07.848 --> 00:05:08.829
Exactly, yeah.

00:05:08.869 --> 00:05:09.809
See, that's my job.

00:05:09.829 --> 00:05:10.249
You feel me?

00:05:10.509 --> 00:05:12.190
I'll make it for them, you know?

00:05:12.411 --> 00:05:12.651
Right.

00:05:12.831 --> 00:05:13.831
I don't need to dance.

00:05:14.072 --> 00:05:15.031
I make y'all dance.

00:05:15.713 --> 00:05:16.994
I do my two-step over here.

00:05:17.014 --> 00:05:18.254
Right.

00:05:19.535 --> 00:05:20.216
Everybody's happy.

00:05:20.836 --> 00:05:21.336
Exactly.

00:05:21.536 --> 00:05:22.297
Everybody wins.

00:05:22.557 --> 00:05:23.057
That part.

00:05:23.197 --> 00:05:23.937
It's a win-win.

00:05:24.677 --> 00:05:25.218
Exactly.

00:05:25.259 --> 00:05:25.459
Win-win.

00:05:25.499 --> 00:05:25.639
Win-win.

00:05:26.617 --> 00:05:28.218
So Connie,

00:05:29.197 --> 00:05:30.218
we like to go a little bit deep

00:05:30.238 --> 00:05:31.418
to know a little bit about our artists,

00:05:31.478 --> 00:05:33.579
like the Abyss, you know what I mean?

00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:34.641
Swim, swim, swim, swim, swim.

00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:35.641
Let's do it.

00:05:37.101 --> 00:05:38.322
So can you give us a brief

00:05:38.401 --> 00:05:40.002
story about where you grew up,

00:05:40.322 --> 00:05:40.963
how you grew up,

00:05:41.423 --> 00:05:42.103
all the way to the young

00:05:42.144 --> 00:05:42.903
lady that you are today?

00:05:42.923 --> 00:05:45.404
Okay, sure.

00:05:46.206 --> 00:05:47.206
Born in Englewood.

00:05:47.266 --> 00:05:48.067
Englewood.

00:05:49.067 --> 00:05:50.487
Always up to no good.

00:05:51.228 --> 00:05:51.908
Exactly.

00:05:51.927 --> 00:05:53.369
I was out there.

00:05:54.012 --> 00:05:55.233
maybe till like age eight.

00:05:55.254 --> 00:05:58.596
And then I moved to Paris, moved to the IE,

00:05:58.636 --> 00:05:59.355
Inland Empire.

00:05:59.375 --> 00:06:02.697
And I've been here ever since.

00:06:02.798 --> 00:06:03.218
You feel me?

00:06:03.259 --> 00:06:04.559
This is definitely home now.

00:06:04.579 --> 00:06:07.600
I was in Englewood the other day.

00:06:07.661 --> 00:06:08.781
That feels like home too,

00:06:08.802 --> 00:06:09.601
but like not really.

00:06:09.641 --> 00:06:11.242
Like the IE is home, you know,

00:06:11.262 --> 00:06:12.504
because I've been here so long.

00:06:13.264 --> 00:06:13.745
Yeah.

00:06:15.185 --> 00:06:15.386
Yeah.

00:06:15.853 --> 00:06:16.233
Yeah.

00:06:16.334 --> 00:06:17.334
And now I'm here.

00:06:17.375 --> 00:06:17.714
I've been,

00:06:17.735 --> 00:06:19.177
I feel like I've been in every city.

00:06:19.237 --> 00:06:20.617
I feel like I get love in every city.

00:06:20.658 --> 00:06:21.117
So like,

00:06:21.398 --> 00:06:22.899
I really do love the Inland Empire.

00:06:22.939 --> 00:06:23.879
Like that's, that's me.

00:06:23.899 --> 00:06:24.620
Queen of the IE.

00:06:25.100 --> 00:06:25.641
I'm here, baby.

00:06:28.723 --> 00:06:29.144
Okay.

00:06:29.865 --> 00:06:31.305
We have to address it, right?

00:06:31.586 --> 00:06:33.026
How we get the name Queen of the IE?

00:06:33.067 --> 00:06:33.788
How did that happen?

00:06:33.807 --> 00:06:35.149
Was it self-proclaimed?

00:06:35.189 --> 00:06:35.709
Talk to us.

00:06:36.110 --> 00:06:36.629
Enlighten us.

00:06:37.050 --> 00:06:37.511
You know what?

00:06:37.571 --> 00:06:38.851
I think it was self-proclaimed.

00:06:38.891 --> 00:06:40.052
I think I gave myself the

00:06:40.072 --> 00:06:41.754
crown because I felt like I

00:06:41.774 --> 00:06:44.435
put in the work to have that title.

00:06:45.865 --> 00:06:47.887
just putting years of

00:06:47.927 --> 00:06:49.526
attention into building the

00:06:49.567 --> 00:06:50.567
community and the IE,

00:06:50.586 --> 00:06:51.567
the hip-hop community.

00:06:52.427 --> 00:06:53.887
Not just the hip-hop community, too.

00:06:53.947 --> 00:06:54.788
You feel me?

00:06:55.387 --> 00:06:57.069
The education community, too.

00:06:57.189 --> 00:06:58.269
I really feel like,

00:06:58.749 --> 00:07:00.370
even though I wasn't born out here,

00:07:01.269 --> 00:07:02.610
me making this my home and

00:07:02.649 --> 00:07:04.651
making sure everybody knows

00:07:04.690 --> 00:07:05.951
what the IE is.

00:07:07.310 --> 00:07:09.451
I gave myself the crown and

00:07:09.572 --> 00:07:10.531
nobody said nothing.

00:07:11.211 --> 00:07:12.232
Hey, fuck it, right?

00:07:12.351 --> 00:07:14.512
If no one challenged the queen, then

00:07:15.083 --> 00:07:16.064
Let the queen reign.

00:07:17.584 --> 00:07:18.105
Exactly.

00:07:18.444 --> 00:07:18.944
That part.

00:07:19.386 --> 00:07:21.487
You know, I was talking to Eugene O'Neal.

00:07:21.526 --> 00:07:22.848
Shout out to Eugene recently.

00:07:22.867 --> 00:07:24.009
Shout out to Eugene.

00:07:24.749 --> 00:07:25.670
And Cam Archer.

00:07:26.410 --> 00:07:27.089
Shout out to Cam.

00:07:28.091 --> 00:07:29.771
And what I've been hearing a

00:07:29.812 --> 00:07:32.374
lot is that even Tangent

00:07:32.574 --> 00:07:34.535
and like the IE hip hop

00:07:34.574 --> 00:07:36.295
scene has been growing and

00:07:36.315 --> 00:07:38.076
being getting bigger and more noticed.

00:07:38.117 --> 00:07:38.276
Like,

00:07:38.617 --> 00:07:40.017
what's your thoughts on the IE hip

00:07:40.038 --> 00:07:40.658
hop scene now?

00:07:42.322 --> 00:07:44.124
Um, man,

00:07:44.163 --> 00:07:45.725
I feel like there's so many heavy

00:07:45.764 --> 00:07:48.307
hitters in the IE that are slept on.

00:07:48.326 --> 00:07:49.387
Um,

00:07:50.127 --> 00:07:51.749
and then you have new artists coming in.

00:07:51.809 --> 00:07:52.790
I'm excited for that.

00:07:53.069 --> 00:07:53.149
Um,

00:07:53.209 --> 00:07:54.831
I'm trying to keep my ear to the streets,

00:07:55.492 --> 00:07:56.512
you know, cause, um,

00:07:57.233 --> 00:07:57.934
all the heavy hitters,

00:07:57.954 --> 00:07:59.535
we've been doing this for a long time.

00:07:59.555 --> 00:08:01.336
Um, but there's these,

00:08:01.555 --> 00:08:02.656
these new artists and I

00:08:02.677 --> 00:08:03.497
feel like we can't,

00:08:03.697 --> 00:08:05.499
we can't ignore the upcomers, you know,

00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:06.560
like it's important for us

00:08:06.579 --> 00:08:08.321
to make sure we pour into them too.

00:08:08.341 --> 00:08:09.502
Yeah.

00:08:10.048 --> 00:08:11.110
You know, like T-Spoke.

00:08:11.129 --> 00:08:12.011
Shout out to T-Spoke.

00:08:12.031 --> 00:08:13.911
She's an up-and-coming female rapper.

00:08:15.994 --> 00:08:17.394
You know, because we've done it.

00:08:17.915 --> 00:08:18.415
You know,

00:08:18.456 --> 00:08:20.737
so now it's like we need to make

00:08:20.776 --> 00:08:24.579
sure we show love to the new age.

00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:25.060
You feel me?

00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:25.901
To the new school.

00:08:26.901 --> 00:08:27.302
Facts.

00:08:27.663 --> 00:08:28.083
Facts.

00:08:28.863 --> 00:08:30.225
Can you give us a couple of

00:08:30.264 --> 00:08:31.185
names of some heavy hitters?

00:08:31.745 --> 00:08:32.687
Maybe some people might not know.

00:08:34.408 --> 00:08:36.009
You said the name of what?

00:08:36.028 --> 00:08:36.929
A couple of heavy hitters.

00:08:37.798 --> 00:08:39.879
Heavy hitters, oh, you know, Noah James,

00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:41.640
Cam Gnarly, Stevie Crooks.

00:08:43.442 --> 00:08:44.543
Shoot, all the homeboys.

00:08:44.582 --> 00:08:46.163
Cam Marchand, like you said.

00:08:46.403 --> 00:08:46.724
Yeah.

00:08:47.283 --> 00:08:49.485
It's so many of us that have

00:08:50.245 --> 00:08:51.187
been doing it for a minute.

00:08:51.226 --> 00:08:51.687
I have, like,

00:08:51.966 --> 00:08:53.107
it's the Common Ground shirt

00:08:53.148 --> 00:08:53.827
on right now.

00:08:53.847 --> 00:08:54.447
You feel me?

00:08:54.528 --> 00:08:56.089
Like, 14-year anniversary.

00:08:56.129 --> 00:08:58.530
So, you know, 14 years.

00:08:59.831 --> 00:09:02.613
It's been a long time of us

00:09:02.732 --> 00:09:04.333
all just doing our thing in the IE.

00:09:05.053 --> 00:09:05.433
Yeah.

00:09:05.494 --> 00:09:06.173
Shout out to,

00:09:06.634 --> 00:09:08.475
to all y'all shout out to all y'all,

00:09:09.134 --> 00:09:09.816
you know, and you,

00:09:09.895 --> 00:09:11.275
you mentioned earlier that

00:09:11.975 --> 00:09:13.756
you just got back from, you know,

00:09:14.236 --> 00:09:14.756
Coachella.

00:09:14.777 --> 00:09:16.038
So I want to play a little clip.

00:09:16.057 --> 00:09:18.739
I want you to tell us a little bit about,

00:09:18.839 --> 00:09:19.958
about what's happening in this clip.

00:09:20.038 --> 00:09:20.298
All right.

00:09:20.318 --> 00:09:21.919
Can you just let us all know

00:09:21.940 --> 00:09:22.340
what's going on?

00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:23.159
All right.

00:09:23.179 --> 00:09:23.559
For sure.

00:09:26.441 --> 00:09:28.201
Okay.

00:09:28.922 --> 00:09:29.902
Okay.

00:09:30.221 --> 00:09:32.123
That's me DJing at the

00:09:32.523 --> 00:09:33.504
community space that they

00:09:33.543 --> 00:09:34.543
have at Coachella.

00:09:35.552 --> 00:09:37.355
For Q Plus and A Plus.

00:09:39.535 --> 00:09:41.618
We had a ball there with the

00:09:41.658 --> 00:09:42.477
Blessed Madonna.

00:09:42.498 --> 00:09:43.698
If you guys don't know who that is,

00:09:43.719 --> 00:09:44.539
go check her out.

00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:45.639
Big DJ.

00:09:46.801 --> 00:09:47.961
So she came and she hung out

00:09:47.981 --> 00:09:48.923
with us for a second.

00:09:48.982 --> 00:09:51.985
And it was cool to be able to DJ for her.

00:09:52.044 --> 00:09:53.206
She's a big DJ, you know,

00:09:53.245 --> 00:09:54.447
so I had to have to make

00:09:54.466 --> 00:09:55.226
sure I did my thing.

00:09:55.287 --> 00:09:56.327
And I was having fun.

00:09:57.889 --> 00:09:59.149
Yeah, which is important.

00:09:59.190 --> 00:09:59.990
You got to have fun.

00:10:00.451 --> 00:10:01.851
Yeah, I had a great time.

00:10:02.231 --> 00:10:03.092
How was your experience

00:10:03.153 --> 00:10:03.952
actually in Coachella?

00:10:04.033 --> 00:10:04.874
How was the experience?

00:10:06.354 --> 00:10:08.535
It was definitely an experience.

00:10:08.576 --> 00:10:09.256
I give you that.

00:10:10.597 --> 00:10:11.437
Not a lot of sleep.

00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:12.860
There's a lot of stages.

00:10:12.940 --> 00:10:16.022
It's like you have no time to even think,

00:10:16.081 --> 00:10:16.342
you know,

00:10:16.363 --> 00:10:17.844
you got to go and see the next act.

00:10:17.864 --> 00:10:19.465
Like, oh, this so-and-so is going on.

00:10:19.485 --> 00:10:20.186
Like, oh, you know.

00:10:22.587 --> 00:10:23.489
I lost a lot of weight

00:10:23.629 --> 00:10:26.711
because you got to walk to, you know,

00:10:26.772 --> 00:10:28.313
the next stage in 10 minutes.

00:10:28.695 --> 00:10:30.515
Um, but it was, it was fun.

00:10:30.576 --> 00:10:33.480
I learned about new, new artists like, uh,

00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:35.942
Chaperone or I think that's her name.

00:10:36.162 --> 00:10:38.083
There is just as a musician

00:10:38.125 --> 00:10:40.307
being there too is really cool.

00:10:40.346 --> 00:10:41.107
Especially, um,

00:10:42.385 --> 00:10:43.005
you know, I was,

00:10:43.125 --> 00:10:44.307
I went there with Q plus

00:10:44.606 --> 00:10:45.486
shout out to Q plus.

00:10:46.107 --> 00:10:48.349
So like we have VIP to everything.

00:10:48.369 --> 00:10:49.149
Wow.

00:10:49.668 --> 00:10:50.710
So it was really cool

00:10:50.730 --> 00:10:51.629
because you're standing

00:10:51.669 --> 00:10:53.130
next to like your favorite artists,

00:10:53.291 --> 00:10:53.650
you know,

00:10:53.691 --> 00:10:55.211
like you look over and you see

00:10:55.272 --> 00:10:56.653
tiger or there's another

00:10:56.712 --> 00:10:57.613
clip somewhere where like,

00:10:57.633 --> 00:10:59.014
I look over there, Justin Bieber,

00:10:59.053 --> 00:11:02.676
you know, like, um, so that experience,

00:11:03.436 --> 00:11:04.697
it makes you think like, Oh, you know,

00:11:04.716 --> 00:11:05.856
I'm not that far from,

00:11:06.177 --> 00:11:07.738
from where these people are, you know,

00:11:07.857 --> 00:11:08.577
it's not going to take that

00:11:08.618 --> 00:11:09.599
much for me to get to where they,

00:11:09.938 --> 00:11:10.479
where they are.

00:11:10.538 --> 00:11:11.639
So, um,

00:11:12.365 --> 00:11:13.686
Definitely experience I won't forget.

00:11:13.706 --> 00:11:15.067
I hope I get to go next year too.

00:11:17.006 --> 00:11:17.246
Oh yeah.

00:11:17.267 --> 00:11:17.727
You're going to go.

00:11:17.768 --> 00:11:19.327
We can throw in the atmosphere.

00:11:19.988 --> 00:11:20.628
You can go again.

00:11:20.908 --> 00:11:21.208
Come on.

00:11:21.249 --> 00:11:22.089
Coachella energy.

00:11:22.109 --> 00:11:23.649
Just bring it to myself.

00:11:24.250 --> 00:11:25.129
You know, it's crazy.

00:11:25.169 --> 00:11:25.950
And you mentioned it like

00:11:25.990 --> 00:11:27.711
how you don't realize how

00:11:27.811 --> 00:11:28.850
close you are to people.

00:11:29.071 --> 00:11:29.350
Right.

00:11:29.711 --> 00:11:30.051
Yeah.

00:11:30.551 --> 00:11:31.131
Right there.

00:11:31.152 --> 00:11:32.011
Right.

00:11:32.682 --> 00:11:34.102
So I guess Coachella,

00:11:34.123 --> 00:11:34.763
you can always think about

00:11:34.783 --> 00:11:35.903
Coachella as a plus because

00:11:35.923 --> 00:11:36.703
you can lose some weight,

00:11:36.744 --> 00:11:38.323
get your exercise on and stuff like that,

00:11:38.365 --> 00:11:38.565
too.

00:11:39.105 --> 00:11:40.024
Oh, yeah, definitely.

00:11:40.485 --> 00:11:42.105
And I was carrying DJ equipment, too.

00:11:42.166 --> 00:11:43.407
So I was like extra pounds.

00:11:43.466 --> 00:11:44.067
I'm like, man,

00:11:44.106 --> 00:11:46.687
I could at least get me a cart.

00:11:46.748 --> 00:11:49.308
But it was it was cool.

00:11:49.369 --> 00:11:50.230
I had to go there like, hey,

00:11:50.250 --> 00:11:50.710
you know what?

00:11:50.750 --> 00:11:52.049
No gym membership this week.

00:11:52.591 --> 00:11:53.471
Yeah, for real.

00:11:53.591 --> 00:11:54.951
No gym membership this week.

00:11:55.412 --> 00:11:57.153
Yeah, I would do it all over again.

00:11:57.373 --> 00:11:57.873
I really would.

00:11:57.893 --> 00:11:58.852
I love it.

00:11:59.413 --> 00:11:59.913
I love it.

00:12:00.837 --> 00:12:02.619
For everyone who's just joining the stream,

00:12:03.078 --> 00:12:04.299
we're here talking with Young Miss.

00:12:04.740 --> 00:12:05.740
She gave us a background on

00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:06.660
how she grew up.

00:12:07.181 --> 00:12:09.562
She talked to us about being

00:12:09.601 --> 00:12:11.503
DJing at Coachella with Q+.

00:12:11.523 --> 00:12:13.543
You guys are on The Empire.

00:12:13.604 --> 00:12:14.764
My name's Antonio Lee Miles.

Young Miss,

and we're going to keep moving

00:12:21.467 --> 00:12:22.388
forward with what we're doing here.

00:12:23.129 --> 00:12:24.870
So Young Miss,

00:12:25.390 --> 00:12:26.371
you just came out with an album,

00:12:26.432 --> 00:12:27.413
or not that recent,

00:12:27.432 --> 00:12:29.394
but the album came out this year,

00:12:29.835 --> 00:12:31.096
Local Celebrity, correct?

00:12:31.716 --> 00:12:33.097
Yes, sir, Local Celebrity.

00:12:33.437 --> 00:12:35.360
Can you talk to us about the album,

00:12:35.419 --> 00:12:37.302
how it came about, favorite tracks,

00:12:37.701 --> 00:12:38.842
what people can expect,

00:12:39.443 --> 00:12:40.784
the name of the album?

00:12:41.044 --> 00:12:43.908
Talk to us all about the album.

00:12:44.928 --> 00:12:46.629
Yeah, we can start with the name.

00:12:48.230 --> 00:12:48.951
It's interesting.

00:12:48.971 --> 00:12:50.253
I actually had like a little

00:12:50.312 --> 00:12:51.913
falling out with a producer

00:12:52.534 --> 00:12:54.176
and I feel like he was

00:12:54.196 --> 00:12:55.037
trying to diss me and

00:12:55.057 --> 00:12:56.538
that's what he kind of called me like, oh,

00:12:56.577 --> 00:12:57.938
you're just a local celebrity.

00:12:58.620 --> 00:13:00.301
And to me, I'm like, okay,

00:13:00.341 --> 00:13:02.722
like I'm going to take that, you know,

00:13:02.763 --> 00:13:04.124
like you could try and make

00:13:04.163 --> 00:13:04.985
it a negative thing.

00:13:05.024 --> 00:13:06.306
But to me, that's a positive thing.

00:13:06.346 --> 00:13:08.467
Like, like I said, I'm in my community.

00:13:09.008 --> 00:13:10.669
I walk around and people

00:13:10.730 --> 00:13:13.192
notice me and I had to work to get that,

00:13:13.251 --> 00:13:13.552
you know,

00:13:13.611 --> 00:13:16.114
it's not every day that that

00:13:16.134 --> 00:13:16.934
happens for people.

00:13:16.995 --> 00:13:17.134
So.

00:13:17.642 --> 00:13:18.562
yeah, local celebrity.

00:13:18.601 --> 00:13:19.163
I'll be that.

00:13:19.302 --> 00:13:19.643
Sure.

00:13:19.923 --> 00:13:20.163
Yep.

00:13:20.623 --> 00:13:21.764
I'll, I'll take that title.

00:13:22.703 --> 00:13:24.705
Um, but yeah, that's,

00:13:24.804 --> 00:13:26.145
that was basically my idea

00:13:26.186 --> 00:13:27.066
behind everything.

00:13:27.986 --> 00:13:31.067
Um, and just working towards, um,

00:13:31.107 --> 00:13:31.488
the goal.

00:13:31.508 --> 00:13:33.149
If you look at the back cover of the album,

00:13:33.188 --> 00:13:36.410
which I need to promote more, um, uh,

00:13:36.730 --> 00:13:38.010
there's like a Grammy at the end.

00:13:38.030 --> 00:13:39.532
So like, that's the main goal, you know,

00:13:39.591 --> 00:13:41.773
even though I'm a local celebrity, uh,

00:13:41.873 --> 00:13:42.913
maybe a few years from now,

00:13:42.933 --> 00:13:44.433
I might be international superstar.

00:13:44.734 --> 00:13:45.975
Who knows, you know, um,

00:13:47.398 --> 00:13:48.298
There's levels to it.

00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:51.400
Producers on there.

00:13:51.421 --> 00:13:52.682
I got Rich I.E.

00:13:52.701 --> 00:13:55.524
I got So Dope 95.

00:13:56.604 --> 00:13:58.365
Who else I have on there?

00:13:58.485 --> 00:13:59.765
Oh, Wits the King.

00:14:02.067 --> 00:14:02.989
Bangers.

00:14:03.028 --> 00:14:03.749
They made some bangers.

00:14:03.808 --> 00:14:05.029
I have some more beats from them, too.

00:14:05.070 --> 00:14:07.331
So maybe we'll get a local celebrity, too.

00:14:07.390 --> 00:14:08.272
I don't know what I'm going to do.

00:14:08.831 --> 00:14:09.212
But yeah.

00:14:10.802 --> 00:14:12.004
uh my singles I dropped the

00:14:12.024 --> 00:14:14.265
video for no questions I

00:14:14.285 --> 00:14:15.388
think that was last month

00:14:15.668 --> 00:14:17.129
and then I just dropped

00:14:17.210 --> 00:14:18.331
feel the vibe that's my new

00:14:18.370 --> 00:14:21.495
single out right now so I

00:14:21.514 --> 00:14:22.696
would say those two are my favorites

00:14:24.326 --> 00:14:25.486
Okay, okay.

00:14:25.986 --> 00:14:26.586
Shout out.

00:14:27.028 --> 00:14:27.307
You know,

00:14:28.368 --> 00:14:30.168
I really like how you took the

00:14:30.208 --> 00:14:32.850
shots fired that the producer was saying.

00:14:32.870 --> 00:14:33.691
Yeah.

00:14:33.750 --> 00:14:34.652
No name drop.

00:14:35.251 --> 00:14:36.893
But the producer was saying,

00:14:37.212 --> 00:14:38.053
and you're like, you know what?

00:14:38.134 --> 00:14:38.933
Let me just flip that

00:14:38.974 --> 00:14:39.695
because you know what?

00:14:40.514 --> 00:14:41.556
I am a local celebrity.

00:14:41.576 --> 00:14:42.155
People know me.

00:14:42.677 --> 00:14:43.437
Yeah, I'll take that.

00:14:44.057 --> 00:14:45.758
I respect that a lot.

00:14:45.999 --> 00:14:46.619
You know what I mean?

00:14:47.298 --> 00:14:50.801
And a couple of tracks that really hit me,

00:14:50.980 --> 00:14:51.642
one of them was

00:14:53.072 --> 00:14:54.293
So the first one that really got me,

00:14:54.533 --> 00:14:55.453
and I'm not sure if it's,

00:14:55.715 --> 00:14:56.355
I think it's on the album.

00:14:56.375 --> 00:14:57.235
I'm pretty sure it's on the album.

00:14:57.876 --> 00:14:59.077
The first thing that got me is I'm Good.

00:15:00.899 --> 00:15:03.101
I'm Good is on And Still.

00:15:03.121 --> 00:15:04.482
That was my last project.

00:15:04.623 --> 00:15:05.043
Okay.

00:15:05.443 --> 00:15:06.085
Yeah.

00:15:06.606 --> 00:15:08.408
Yeah, I was going, and I was like, man,

00:15:08.427 --> 00:15:09.508
I really liked the,

00:15:10.288 --> 00:15:11.229
this is the vibe of it.

00:15:11.269 --> 00:15:11.990
I just really liked it.

00:15:12.590 --> 00:15:14.551
And then on the Sonics,

00:15:15.311 --> 00:15:16.971
is Gate Program on?

00:15:17.471 --> 00:15:18.592
That's Amstel too.

00:15:19.192 --> 00:15:19.813
Wow.

00:15:20.894 --> 00:15:22.794
You still on the last one.

00:15:22.815 --> 00:15:23.956
You gotta catch up.

00:15:24.735 --> 00:15:27.317
My Spotify messing up on me or something.

00:15:27.336 --> 00:15:27.657
You know what?

00:15:27.716 --> 00:15:28.917
I don't like Spotify because

00:15:28.956 --> 00:15:30.217
they just be putting random

00:15:30.238 --> 00:15:31.197
tracks and it's like

00:15:31.778 --> 00:15:32.717
artists put their tracks in

00:15:32.798 --> 00:15:33.678
order for a reason.

00:15:33.698 --> 00:15:35.499
So I don't mean Spotify.

00:15:35.538 --> 00:15:37.299
Yeah, God.

00:15:37.500 --> 00:15:39.080
Spotty, you're spotting, Spotty.

00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:40.380
Yeah, exactly.

00:15:40.500 --> 00:15:42.181
Because I was like, play the whole album.

00:15:42.221 --> 00:15:43.861
And I just like, you know, so I'm like,

00:15:43.902 --> 00:15:45.062
I'm assuming it's playing the album.

00:15:45.121 --> 00:15:46.403
It's got a local celebrity on it.

00:15:46.802 --> 00:15:47.302
Yeah.

00:15:47.462 --> 00:15:50.543
Anyway, so gate program.

00:15:50.563 --> 00:15:50.724
Yeah.

00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:52.880
I was like, wow,

00:15:52.921 --> 00:15:56.363
I really like the sonics of it.

00:15:56.403 --> 00:15:58.484
The sonics was really moving on that.

00:15:58.965 --> 00:15:59.705
I appreciate it.

00:16:00.066 --> 00:16:02.586
But I guess I got to go back and check.

00:16:02.606 --> 00:16:03.707
Yeah, you got to type in.

00:16:04.168 --> 00:16:05.149
I got to go back and check

00:16:05.168 --> 00:16:05.948
what's going on.

00:16:07.090 --> 00:16:09.052
This body is messing up over here.

00:16:09.072 --> 00:16:10.371
Please do.

00:16:10.432 --> 00:16:10.732
No rush.

00:16:10.913 --> 00:16:12.573
It's going to be out until it's

00:16:13.145 --> 00:16:14.505
until whenever you put me

00:16:14.546 --> 00:16:16.986
forever yeah that part yeah

00:16:17.167 --> 00:16:18.807
it's out so it's out but at

00:16:19.067 --> 00:16:20.168
least I got to recognize

00:16:20.227 --> 00:16:21.369
more about your sound and

00:16:21.389 --> 00:16:22.568
your style and I remember

00:16:22.609 --> 00:16:23.469
those two songs that I

00:16:23.489 --> 00:16:24.568
thought I was going through

00:16:24.589 --> 00:16:26.210
the discography I was like

00:16:26.230 --> 00:16:28.110
man like I really like it

00:16:28.890 --> 00:16:30.750
and what's cool and I think

00:16:30.770 --> 00:16:31.772
you mentioned it earlier is

00:16:31.812 --> 00:16:33.451
that not only do you rap

00:16:33.471 --> 00:16:34.712
but you also sing too as

00:16:34.753 --> 00:16:36.913
well right yeah and on top

00:16:36.932 --> 00:16:37.933
of that as we saw we saw

00:16:37.953 --> 00:16:39.274
you that you do djing right

00:16:39.813 --> 00:16:42.575
so when it comes to being behind the mic

00:16:43.268 --> 00:16:44.227
or behind the tables,

00:16:44.967 --> 00:16:45.928
which one do you prefer?

00:16:45.948 --> 00:16:48.229
And is there a different vibe?

00:16:50.470 --> 00:16:52.149
I would definitely say I

00:16:52.429 --> 00:16:53.690
prefer being behind the mic

00:16:55.510 --> 00:16:56.890
because I've been doing that longer.

00:16:56.910 --> 00:16:58.971
It feels more natural to me.

00:17:00.052 --> 00:17:01.312
DJing just came about

00:17:01.351 --> 00:17:02.052
because I would throw

00:17:02.091 --> 00:17:03.533
parties and it's like, well,

00:17:03.552 --> 00:17:04.553
who's going to play the music?

00:17:05.252 --> 00:17:06.012
I guess I am.

00:17:07.452 --> 00:17:08.794
I didn't really have money to pay a DJ.

00:17:08.834 --> 00:17:09.653
It's like, I'm the DJ.

00:17:10.307 --> 00:17:11.667
you know um and throw

00:17:11.769 --> 00:17:12.750
anybody who throws parties

00:17:12.769 --> 00:17:13.810
knows like so you got to

00:17:13.830 --> 00:17:15.752
figure it out uh so that's

00:17:15.792 --> 00:17:17.694
how I got started djing and

00:17:17.734 --> 00:17:18.895
I'm still learning you know

00:17:18.935 --> 00:17:19.936
there's as a dj there's so

00:17:19.957 --> 00:17:21.178
many tips and tricks and

00:17:21.417 --> 00:17:22.720
different buttons and stuff

00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:24.862
you know so even djing at

00:17:24.882 --> 00:17:25.843
coachella like there's

00:17:25.982 --> 00:17:27.263
there's still more I could

00:17:27.284 --> 00:17:28.846
learn to do and then maybe

00:17:28.865 --> 00:17:30.567
I'll go up to the next level but um

00:17:31.157 --> 00:17:32.398
definitely being behind the

00:17:32.439 --> 00:17:33.618
mic rapping and singing

00:17:33.659 --> 00:17:34.960
like I love doing that I

00:17:34.980 --> 00:17:36.400
love hopping on the stage

00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:38.560
um because for me that's

00:17:38.601 --> 00:17:40.201
that's like that's therapy

00:17:40.221 --> 00:17:41.442
for me you know I'm I'm

00:17:41.461 --> 00:17:43.063
very quiet very reserved

00:17:43.123 --> 00:17:44.282
but when I'm on stage it's

00:17:44.303 --> 00:17:45.703
like I can't I can't do

00:17:45.763 --> 00:17:46.983
that you know I have to put

00:17:47.044 --> 00:17:50.205
on a show um so yeah I

00:17:50.226 --> 00:17:53.487
enjoy that more yeah you

00:17:53.527 --> 00:17:55.228
know it's kind of crazy um

00:17:55.288 --> 00:17:56.067
going back to like

00:17:57.739 --> 00:17:58.359
the person,

00:17:59.300 --> 00:18:01.682
the artist outside of the stage

00:18:01.742 --> 00:18:04.325
and the artist on stage, I always,

00:18:04.905 --> 00:18:05.526
the first thing that comes

00:18:05.546 --> 00:18:06.406
to my mind is like, I guess,

00:18:06.446 --> 00:18:07.688
Beyonce and Salsa Fierce.

00:18:08.269 --> 00:18:11.731
What was I going to say?

00:18:11.771 --> 00:18:12.472
I lost my train of thought,

00:18:12.492 --> 00:18:13.232
but I always think it's

00:18:13.252 --> 00:18:14.595
kind of interesting because it's like,

00:18:16.717 --> 00:18:19.499
I feel like it's kind of like the, the,

00:18:19.679 --> 00:18:20.319
the, our, uh,

00:18:20.942 --> 00:18:22.282
Sorry, my blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

00:18:22.303 --> 00:18:22.863
blah, blah.

00:18:22.942 --> 00:18:23.542
Take your time.

00:18:23.603 --> 00:18:24.042
It's early.

00:18:24.383 --> 00:18:26.403
The way of expressing ourselves is like,

00:18:26.584 --> 00:18:27.884
it's like showing our true colors,

00:18:27.924 --> 00:18:28.785
like without fear.

00:18:28.805 --> 00:18:29.746
You know, it's like,

00:18:29.786 --> 00:18:32.247
this is who I really am type of thing.

00:18:32.267 --> 00:18:33.666
Yeah.

00:18:34.428 --> 00:18:34.748
Yeah.

00:18:34.768 --> 00:18:35.228
And yeah.

00:18:35.607 --> 00:18:36.067
So, you know,

00:18:36.127 --> 00:18:37.009
sometimes I have to put the

00:18:37.028 --> 00:18:38.469
young man's persona on to,

00:18:38.730 --> 00:18:40.990
to get out of my own head, you know, like,

00:18:42.790 --> 00:18:44.652
um, and then I always think about,

00:18:44.672 --> 00:18:46.692
I watched this documentary so long ago,

00:18:46.732 --> 00:18:48.173
but like Marvin Gaye,

00:18:48.233 --> 00:18:49.213
like he was really shy.

00:18:51.409 --> 00:18:52.469
But then he gets on stage

00:18:52.489 --> 00:18:54.250
and it's Marvin Gaye.

00:18:54.269 --> 00:18:56.090
He has the band.

00:18:56.131 --> 00:18:58.491
He's dancing and doing all it is.

00:19:00.413 --> 00:19:02.292
I think about that from time to time.

00:19:02.313 --> 00:19:03.653
That's me.

00:19:03.693 --> 00:19:04.273
If you meet me,

00:19:04.674 --> 00:19:05.795
I might not even talk to you.

00:19:06.015 --> 00:19:06.615
I'll say what's up,

00:19:06.634 --> 00:19:07.776
but I'm real quiet in the corner.

00:19:07.816 --> 00:19:09.096
But when I'm at that stage,

00:19:09.136 --> 00:19:10.737
I'm going to make sure I'm

00:19:10.797 --> 00:19:11.397
rapping to you.

00:19:11.498 --> 00:19:12.758
I'm rapping to you.

00:19:12.857 --> 00:19:15.479
Or I'm singing to you.

00:19:15.679 --> 00:19:16.579
Make sure I put on a show.

00:19:17.397 --> 00:19:18.980
yeah you know and I think as

00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:20.941
um influencers and like

00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:22.643
entertainers sometimes

00:19:22.722 --> 00:19:25.826
people will um take one

00:19:25.865 --> 00:19:26.767
persona I guess the one

00:19:26.787 --> 00:19:27.586
that you're known for like

00:19:27.606 --> 00:19:28.929
young miss and they think

00:19:28.969 --> 00:19:30.230
that's like who you are in

00:19:30.269 --> 00:19:31.851
real life type of situation

00:19:32.632 --> 00:19:33.432
you know it's like I'm not

00:19:33.452 --> 00:19:34.173
really that I was for your

00:19:34.193 --> 00:19:34.913
purpose I'm kind of like a

00:19:34.993 --> 00:19:37.737
quiet reserved person and I

00:19:37.777 --> 00:19:39.518
think a lot of um people

00:19:39.577 --> 00:19:41.059
who and I guess it probably

00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:41.840
happens mostly for like

00:19:41.861 --> 00:19:42.882
probably like rappers where

00:19:42.902 --> 00:19:43.362
they have to like

00:19:44.942 --> 00:19:45.604
and I read about it,

00:19:45.743 --> 00:19:47.247
they have to live this persona.

00:19:47.267 --> 00:19:49.269
They're kind of trapped by the persona.

00:19:49.289 --> 00:19:51.113
They can't be themselves,

00:19:51.653 --> 00:19:52.795
which I think kind of sucks

00:19:53.195 --> 00:19:54.176
in the world sometimes,

00:19:54.198 --> 00:19:55.519
because people create this,

00:19:56.221 --> 00:19:56.721
you see what I'm saying?

00:19:56.741 --> 00:19:57.522
They create this image and

00:19:57.542 --> 00:19:58.423
they have to live with this image,

00:19:58.443 --> 00:19:59.865
but it's not who they really are.

00:20:00.507 --> 00:20:01.288
Even some YouTube

00:20:01.327 --> 00:20:02.728
influencers do that stuff too,

00:20:02.768 --> 00:20:03.989
or Instagram influencers, you know,

00:20:04.009 --> 00:20:04.989
like they create this image,

00:20:05.390 --> 00:20:06.430
but that's not who they really are.

00:20:06.450 --> 00:20:08.590
And so they're trapped by this image.

00:20:09.332 --> 00:20:10.491
Not saying that that's how you are.

00:20:10.511 --> 00:20:13.913
No, I mean, I try and be myself.

00:20:13.953 --> 00:20:14.513
Like, you know,

00:20:14.594 --> 00:20:15.375
people might have this

00:20:15.454 --> 00:20:16.654
image of me because they see,

00:20:17.096 --> 00:20:18.276
they watch my music video,

00:20:18.316 --> 00:20:19.717
but like they get around me like, oh,

00:20:19.757 --> 00:20:21.337
you know, you're really quiet.

00:20:21.577 --> 00:20:22.999
Like, yeah, sorry.

00:20:23.038 --> 00:20:23.278
You know,

00:20:23.298 --> 00:20:24.558
I didn't know what you were expecting.

00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:26.460
But, you know,

00:20:26.540 --> 00:20:27.681
I'm me at the end of the day.

00:20:27.740 --> 00:20:29.261
I can't be anybody else.

00:20:29.760 --> 00:20:30.221
True.

00:20:30.461 --> 00:20:31.481
But as far as persona,

00:20:31.521 --> 00:20:32.642
like sometimes I do take

00:20:32.682 --> 00:20:34.603
young miss and I like I use

00:20:34.643 --> 00:20:36.124
that persona in the classroom.

00:20:36.144 --> 00:20:38.064
Oh, I like to have fun.

00:20:38.084 --> 00:20:38.984
Like, come on, kids.

00:20:39.025 --> 00:20:41.726
Let's beatbox, you know, like dope.

00:20:42.326 --> 00:20:42.766
Yeah.

00:20:42.786 --> 00:20:43.445
So, you know,

00:20:43.605 --> 00:20:45.007
you can't really be shy in the classroom.

00:20:45.027 --> 00:20:46.688
You have to teach, you know,

00:20:46.768 --> 00:20:47.867
so that does help me like

00:20:47.887 --> 00:20:49.249
being a performer because

00:20:49.269 --> 00:20:51.410
I'm getting up in front of, you know,

00:20:51.430 --> 00:20:54.371
I'm on stage teaching, you know, so.

00:20:55.432 --> 00:20:55.973
Yeah.

00:20:56.294 --> 00:20:58.996
I remember, shout out to Adam et al.

00:20:59.616 --> 00:21:00.798
Shout out to Adam et al.

00:21:01.358 --> 00:21:01.679
Yeah.

00:21:01.739 --> 00:21:02.660
He's a teacher as well.

00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:05.082
And he was telling me like, kind of like,

00:21:05.122 --> 00:21:07.163
you know, it's like they're both stages.

00:21:07.785 --> 00:21:08.724
Yes, definitely.

00:21:09.105 --> 00:21:09.405
You know,

00:21:09.546 --> 00:21:10.626
which is interesting kind of

00:21:10.646 --> 00:21:11.748
perspective if you're a teacher.

00:21:11.768 --> 00:21:13.269
And I think Cam Gnarly is also a teacher.

00:21:13.990 --> 00:21:14.210
Yeah.

00:21:14.730 --> 00:21:15.612
Is Cam a teacher?

00:21:15.892 --> 00:21:16.291
Yeah.

00:21:16.532 --> 00:21:17.212
Shout out to Cam.

00:21:17.232 --> 00:21:18.193
Shout out to Cam Gnarly.

00:21:18.394 --> 00:21:18.554
Yeah.

00:21:18.574 --> 00:21:19.675
I think he's also a teacher.

00:21:20.413 --> 00:21:22.913
we out here, we out here, you know,

00:21:23.634 --> 00:21:24.214
not just, uh,

00:21:24.255 --> 00:21:25.355
it's cool because also I

00:21:25.394 --> 00:21:26.375
think what's also cool

00:21:26.395 --> 00:21:30.377
about that teacher and MC

00:21:30.498 --> 00:21:31.538
rapper persona is that you

00:21:31.557 --> 00:21:34.098
get to actually show kids, Hey, you know,

00:21:34.138 --> 00:21:36.059
like you could still be a

00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:38.500
rapper and be cool and be

00:21:38.540 --> 00:21:39.902
an educator at the same time.

00:21:39.942 --> 00:21:40.442
Like it's still,

00:21:40.561 --> 00:21:42.022
it's still cool to do both.

00:21:42.823 --> 00:21:43.523
Oh, definitely.

00:21:43.544 --> 00:21:44.824
I, I preach that.

00:21:44.864 --> 00:21:46.164
I'll be trying to get my kids like,

00:21:46.184 --> 00:21:47.424
you sure you don't want to be a teacher?

00:21:47.464 --> 00:21:48.465
You know, like, um,

00:21:50.349 --> 00:21:50.871
But yes,

00:21:51.770 --> 00:21:53.252
I try my best to make education

00:21:53.333 --> 00:21:54.614
fun because I know coming up,

00:21:54.713 --> 00:21:56.694
I'd be in class like, oh my gosh,

00:21:57.736 --> 00:21:58.336
so bored.

00:21:58.777 --> 00:22:00.258
So I make sure we're having

00:22:00.298 --> 00:22:01.318
fun at all times.

00:22:01.338 --> 00:22:02.519
We could be learning about plants.

00:22:02.680 --> 00:22:06.021
I'm going to make a rap about chlorophyll.

00:22:06.041 --> 00:22:07.022
I like that.

00:22:07.042 --> 00:22:08.903
The green stuff.

00:22:09.424 --> 00:22:10.045
Exactly.

00:22:10.586 --> 00:22:10.905
Got you.

00:22:10.945 --> 00:22:13.367
Not this green stuff, but the green stuff.

00:22:13.807 --> 00:22:14.327
Wait a minute.

00:22:14.868 --> 00:22:15.209
Hello.

00:22:15.869 --> 00:22:16.130
Hello.

00:22:17.173 --> 00:22:19.134
Since we're talking about education,

00:22:19.154 --> 00:22:20.955
can you tell us a little

00:22:21.056 --> 00:22:22.395
bit about your education,

00:22:22.416 --> 00:22:24.477
the type of education that you teach,

00:22:24.958 --> 00:22:26.577
why you decided to become an educator?

00:22:26.597 --> 00:22:28.358
Can you give us a little

00:22:28.378 --> 00:22:29.259
background on stuff like that?

00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:31.059
Okay.

00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:32.020
Yeah, like I said,

00:22:32.060 --> 00:22:33.461
I have my master's in education.

00:22:34.281 --> 00:22:35.501
Very long road.

00:22:36.163 --> 00:22:36.923
Very long road.

00:22:36.982 --> 00:22:39.223
I started at Moreno Valley College.

00:22:40.365 --> 00:22:43.306
I got three associate's degrees there.

00:22:44.239 --> 00:22:45.539
finally moved on to Cal

00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:47.681
State San Bernardino, go Yotes,

00:22:49.241 --> 00:22:51.203
got my bachelor's in sociology,

00:22:51.864 --> 00:22:54.506
and then finally I got my master's at CBU,

00:22:56.866 --> 00:22:58.087
and I got into education,

00:22:58.107 --> 00:23:02.009
my mom worked at LA Unified,

00:23:02.411 --> 00:23:04.451
so like I'd always be there

00:23:05.553 --> 00:23:07.634
helping her work, you know,

00:23:07.693 --> 00:23:08.974
I'm stapling papers, I'm

00:23:10.105 --> 00:23:11.146
filing stuff.

00:23:11.166 --> 00:23:12.307
So already I had like the

00:23:12.367 --> 00:23:13.648
clerical thing down because

00:23:13.669 --> 00:23:14.650
she had me doing that.

00:23:15.390 --> 00:23:17.971
And then my dad was a pastor.

00:23:18.011 --> 00:23:18.893
He was really big on

00:23:18.952 --> 00:23:20.554
education because he was on

00:23:20.575 --> 00:23:21.355
the stage as well.

00:23:21.375 --> 00:23:22.336
You know, he's teaching,

00:23:23.676 --> 00:23:24.758
teaching the congregation.

00:23:26.118 --> 00:23:27.920
So he kind of instilled that in me.

00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:30.122
He had me like tutoring after school.

00:23:30.182 --> 00:23:31.923
I get out of class and he's like, okay,

00:23:31.943 --> 00:23:32.403
we're going to the

00:23:32.443 --> 00:23:33.345
community center so you

00:23:33.365 --> 00:23:34.385
could go and tutor.

00:23:34.405 --> 00:23:37.347
You know, that was at eight or nine.

00:23:37.407 --> 00:23:38.848
So it's been something that

00:23:38.888 --> 00:23:39.609
I've been doing.

00:23:40.182 --> 00:23:42.084
you know, and it kind of just made sense.

00:23:42.864 --> 00:23:43.124
Um,

00:23:43.924 --> 00:23:45.987
I had somebody like recommend me for an

00:23:46.067 --> 00:23:46.967
education job.

00:23:47.607 --> 00:23:48.469
I wanted to be a doctor.

00:23:48.528 --> 00:23:49.670
I didn't know what I was going to do, but,

00:23:49.730 --> 00:23:52.571
um, I had somebody tell me like, Oh,

00:23:52.612 --> 00:23:53.532
you be good at this.

00:23:53.833 --> 00:23:56.775
And then once I got that job, I was like,

00:23:56.894 --> 00:23:58.797
Oh, like I actually love this.

00:23:58.876 --> 00:24:00.278
Cause I've already been doing it.

00:24:01.239 --> 00:24:04.761
Um, so since then I was like 2008,

00:24:04.761 --> 00:24:06.042
once I got out of high school,

00:24:06.083 --> 00:24:06.942
I just aged myself.

00:24:07.002 --> 00:24:08.765
But anyway, um,

00:24:10.201 --> 00:24:10.682
Yeah.

00:24:10.823 --> 00:24:11.782
Once I got that job,

00:24:11.864 --> 00:24:12.924
every other job after that

00:24:12.944 --> 00:24:14.046
has just been education.

00:24:14.066 --> 00:24:14.826
So it just,

00:24:14.945 --> 00:24:16.288
it made sense to become a teacher.

00:24:18.950 --> 00:24:19.269
Gotcha.

00:24:19.289 --> 00:24:19.691
And you,

00:24:20.111 --> 00:24:21.372
you say you teach special

00:24:21.412 --> 00:24:22.232
education right now?

00:24:22.593 --> 00:24:22.834
Yeah.

00:24:22.874 --> 00:24:23.693
Special education.

00:24:23.713 --> 00:24:25.155
Gotcha.

00:24:25.215 --> 00:24:25.736
Elementary school.

00:24:25.756 --> 00:24:27.238
Learning disabilities and stuff like that?

00:24:27.678 --> 00:24:27.938
Yes.

00:24:27.978 --> 00:24:30.621
Learning disabilities, autism,

00:24:32.142 --> 00:24:32.942
Down syndrome.

00:24:34.096 --> 00:24:34.496
Yeah.

00:24:34.757 --> 00:24:35.757
All those fun things.

00:24:36.137 --> 00:24:36.597
Got you.

00:24:37.098 --> 00:24:38.058
Thank you for that work,

00:24:38.118 --> 00:24:39.721
because number one,

00:24:39.760 --> 00:24:41.122
it's what do they call it?

00:24:41.162 --> 00:24:42.202
Like a thankless job.

00:24:42.522 --> 00:24:43.463
Being one of the teachers,

00:24:43.663 --> 00:24:44.605
like a thankless job.

00:24:45.526 --> 00:24:48.448
And number two, I know that working

00:24:49.449 --> 00:24:50.789
in that community or that

00:24:50.950 --> 00:24:52.510
section with like learning disabilities,

00:24:52.611 --> 00:24:55.073
autism, it's a, it's not easy.

00:24:55.393 --> 00:24:56.953
It's not easy because some of these kids,

00:24:56.973 --> 00:24:57.515
you know, they have,

00:24:57.914 --> 00:24:59.935
I guess I could say triggers that can,

00:25:00.115 --> 00:25:01.817
you know, it can set them off, you know,

00:25:01.857 --> 00:25:02.738
they can kind of go off.

00:25:02.798 --> 00:25:04.578
And so I just want to thank

00:25:04.598 --> 00:25:05.259
you for that work.

00:25:05.299 --> 00:25:06.240
And I know it takes a lot of

00:25:06.300 --> 00:25:07.801
patience for sure.

00:25:08.261 --> 00:25:09.682
Definitely takes a lot of patience.

00:25:10.644 --> 00:25:12.724
It just takes, it takes patience.

00:25:12.744 --> 00:25:12.984
Yes.

00:25:13.025 --> 00:25:15.507
But I think it takes a special person.

00:25:15.527 --> 00:25:17.387
And that's speaking to the

00:25:17.407 --> 00:25:18.308
people around me too.

00:25:20.407 --> 00:25:22.009
because you can't really

00:25:22.528 --> 00:25:23.569
think about it that way.

00:25:23.589 --> 00:25:25.611
They're kids.

00:25:26.872 --> 00:25:27.571
They want to learn.

00:25:27.592 --> 00:25:28.712
They want to have fun.

00:25:30.094 --> 00:25:31.013
That's why I really love

00:25:31.054 --> 00:25:33.134
what I do because at the end of the day,

00:25:34.195 --> 00:25:35.297
the kids in my class are

00:25:35.336 --> 00:25:36.637
the coolest kids on campus.

00:25:37.518 --> 00:25:38.739
It doesn't matter if it's

00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:39.839
special education,

00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:41.520
what disability you have.

00:25:41.921 --> 00:25:42.540
We're in there.

00:25:42.580 --> 00:25:43.602
We're having fun.

00:25:43.981 --> 00:25:44.701
We're learning.

00:25:45.843 --> 00:25:46.743
That's it.

00:25:47.104 --> 00:25:48.625
I try not to look at all that other stuff.

00:25:49.538 --> 00:25:50.939
Um, you know,

00:25:51.338 --> 00:25:52.119
because then they're going to

00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:53.221
let that hold them back.

00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:55.221
And like, we're not, we're not doing that.

00:25:56.363 --> 00:25:56.623
Yeah.

00:25:56.663 --> 00:25:57.163
Respect.

00:25:57.262 --> 00:25:58.023
I respect that.

00:25:58.044 --> 00:25:58.163
Yeah.

00:25:58.183 --> 00:26:00.885
It's about the kids and not

00:26:00.905 --> 00:26:01.846
thinking anything beyond that.

00:26:01.866 --> 00:26:03.307
And I definitely do respect that.

00:26:03.867 --> 00:26:04.468
You know, what's,

00:26:04.627 --> 00:26:05.588
what's one of the most

00:26:05.628 --> 00:26:06.189
important things that

00:26:06.209 --> 00:26:07.089
you've learned since you've

00:26:07.109 --> 00:26:07.730
been an educator?

00:26:10.491 --> 00:26:10.612
Um,

00:26:12.939 --> 00:26:13.499
Man,

00:26:14.740 --> 00:26:17.259
I would say sometimes you got to take

00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:18.560
your work home with you or

00:26:18.601 --> 00:26:19.520
you won't get it done.

00:26:20.641 --> 00:26:21.040
Okay.

00:26:21.080 --> 00:26:21.981
You got your own homework.

00:26:22.682 --> 00:26:23.061
Yeah.

00:26:23.541 --> 00:26:24.362
But then like other

00:26:24.422 --> 00:26:25.643
educators would be like, oh no,

00:26:25.682 --> 00:26:27.202
when you're off, like you're done.

00:26:27.742 --> 00:26:29.723
But like as a new teacher, because this is,

00:26:29.903 --> 00:26:32.163
this is my second year teaching, like, no,

00:26:32.284 --> 00:26:32.463
I,

00:26:32.963 --> 00:26:36.005
I have to make time at home to do it or,

00:26:36.585 --> 00:26:37.766
or I'm going to fall behind.

00:26:38.986 --> 00:26:40.105
Like that's the biggest

00:26:40.145 --> 00:26:41.227
lesson I've learned.

00:26:41.386 --> 00:26:42.007
And like now,

00:26:43.013 --> 00:26:43.973
when I work from home I'm

00:26:44.013 --> 00:26:45.494
like okay I'm getting ahead

00:26:45.634 --> 00:26:46.894
that way when I get to work

00:26:47.035 --> 00:26:47.675
I don't have to do

00:26:47.736 --> 00:26:49.536
paperwork I could teach you

00:26:49.576 --> 00:26:51.396
know like I have time to

00:26:51.457 --> 00:26:52.457
actually pour into my

00:26:52.497 --> 00:26:54.357
students um so that's

00:26:54.617 --> 00:26:56.278
that's a very big thing

00:26:56.357 --> 00:26:57.699
also asking for help I have

00:26:57.739 --> 00:26:58.979
a problem with that because

00:26:59.318 --> 00:27:00.138
I like to do everything

00:27:00.199 --> 00:27:02.380
myself you know like as

00:27:02.420 --> 00:27:03.259
young miss that's what I'm

00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:04.661
doing you know I'm booking

00:27:04.681 --> 00:27:05.580
my schedule I'm doing this

00:27:05.641 --> 00:27:06.381
I'm doing that I don't

00:27:06.401 --> 00:27:08.122
really like to ask for help um

00:27:09.332 --> 00:27:11.314
So I'm learning to do that as an educator.

00:27:11.354 --> 00:27:13.036
Like, how do I do this instead of,

00:27:13.076 --> 00:27:13.957
you know, messing up?

00:27:14.057 --> 00:27:15.739
I don't like messing up either.

00:27:15.778 --> 00:27:17.800
So it's better to ask for help.

00:27:18.121 --> 00:27:19.202
Yeah, you got to pick one.

00:27:19.222 --> 00:27:19.962
Which one you want?

00:27:20.022 --> 00:27:20.983
You want messing up?

00:27:21.003 --> 00:27:22.786
Yeah, exactly.

00:27:23.507 --> 00:27:24.248
We're not messing up.

00:27:25.108 --> 00:27:25.669
That part.

00:27:25.910 --> 00:27:26.210
You know,

00:27:26.230 --> 00:27:28.491
you mentioned a couple times that,

00:27:29.153 --> 00:27:29.554
you know, you...

00:27:30.603 --> 00:27:31.002
Well,

00:27:31.123 --> 00:27:32.364
I think it was the Q plus that got

00:27:32.403 --> 00:27:34.826
you into the VIP for

00:27:35.006 --> 00:27:35.965
Coachella and stuff like that.

00:27:35.986 --> 00:27:36.767
And you've been DJing with

00:27:36.787 --> 00:27:38.327
them for a while and

00:27:38.768 --> 00:27:39.509
correct me if I'm wrong,

00:27:39.548 --> 00:27:40.509
but the Q plus is like the

00:27:40.588 --> 00:27:42.710
LGBTQ plus community, correct?

00:27:43.131 --> 00:27:43.431
Yes.

00:27:43.530 --> 00:27:43.770
Yes.

00:27:43.790 --> 00:27:45.592
Q plus stands for queer, queer plus.

00:27:46.032 --> 00:27:46.333
Yeah.

00:27:46.432 --> 00:27:48.773
So why is it important to

00:27:48.834 --> 00:27:50.855
you to be a part of this community,

00:27:51.036 --> 00:27:51.996
to DJ for this community?

00:27:52.016 --> 00:27:52.997
Why is it important for you

00:27:53.196 --> 00:27:53.856
to do these things?

00:27:55.438 --> 00:27:55.597
Um,

00:27:55.919 --> 00:27:57.460
I would say it's important because I

00:27:57.500 --> 00:27:59.601
get to be me, you know, um,

00:28:00.855 --> 00:28:01.395
In the world,

00:28:01.455 --> 00:28:02.616
sometimes I feel like

00:28:03.457 --> 00:28:04.817
sometimes I have to hide myself.

00:28:06.578 --> 00:28:09.339
But when I'm around Q+, it's like,

00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:10.961
you don't have to hide.

00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:11.641
You could be you.

00:28:11.740 --> 00:28:14.021
I could act feminine if I want.

00:28:14.041 --> 00:28:15.563
I could act masculine if I want.

00:28:15.923 --> 00:28:16.742
Because it's a group of

00:28:16.782 --> 00:28:18.403
people who are all us.

00:28:20.765 --> 00:28:22.266
And then out in the world,

00:28:22.306 --> 00:28:24.946
people have their own opinions.

00:28:25.106 --> 00:28:27.048
They think and they judge

00:28:27.087 --> 00:28:28.769
you on things they don't know.

00:28:29.664 --> 00:28:30.866
So it's not always comfortable.

00:28:33.130 --> 00:28:34.912
So being in Q plus has

00:28:34.951 --> 00:28:37.174
definitely helped me grow to, you know,

00:28:37.556 --> 00:28:38.717
help me learn about myself.

00:28:39.959 --> 00:28:41.080
Great organization.

00:28:41.780 --> 00:28:42.782
Shout out to Q plus again.

00:28:42.803 --> 00:28:43.503
Shout out to Navy.

00:28:43.523 --> 00:28:44.204
Shout out to Jews.

00:28:44.224 --> 00:28:46.106
Shout out to all, all my family.

00:28:46.166 --> 00:28:46.488
Hello.

00:28:46.548 --> 00:28:47.189
Hey guys.

00:28:50.398 --> 00:28:50.699
Dope.

00:28:51.038 --> 00:28:52.400
And I think it's important to have a,

00:28:52.941 --> 00:28:54.922
for all of us, whatever we, you know,

00:28:54.961 --> 00:28:55.942
want to have a place that

00:28:55.961 --> 00:28:57.623
we can going back to like

00:28:57.643 --> 00:28:58.983
the artists and the people

00:28:59.023 --> 00:29:00.125
in public that you can be

00:29:00.144 --> 00:29:01.305
yourself and like express

00:29:01.345 --> 00:29:02.605
yourself and be comfortable.

00:29:02.665 --> 00:29:03.186
You know what I mean?

00:29:03.227 --> 00:29:05.188
Like it's too short not to

00:29:05.208 --> 00:29:06.868
be able to live your most fulfilled,

00:29:06.888 --> 00:29:07.729
the happiest life.

00:29:07.808 --> 00:29:08.329
You know what I mean?

00:29:08.349 --> 00:29:12.372
I believe from what I'm getting from you,

00:29:12.392 --> 00:29:13.992
the Q plus space and

00:29:14.032 --> 00:29:15.594
community allows you to do that.

00:29:16.758 --> 00:29:17.898
Yes, definitely.

00:29:19.099 --> 00:29:21.500
They, they push me to be myself, you know,

00:29:21.540 --> 00:29:22.622
like even if they see I'm,

00:29:22.821 --> 00:29:25.463
I'm being reserved and like, no, you know,

00:29:26.065 --> 00:29:27.925
like I wore a crop top at Coachella.

00:29:27.945 --> 00:29:29.166
That's not something I would do.

00:29:29.626 --> 00:29:29.967
Yeah.

00:29:30.106 --> 00:29:31.769
I had some of the homies run

00:29:31.788 --> 00:29:33.369
me like you were in a crop top, you know,

00:29:33.430 --> 00:29:35.711
but it's like, yeah, do that, you know,

00:29:36.071 --> 00:29:37.712
express yourself, be different.

00:29:39.614 --> 00:29:39.894
And I,

00:29:40.115 --> 00:29:41.915
and be comfortable in the space that

00:29:41.955 --> 00:29:43.537
you're in, whatever space that you're in.

00:29:43.576 --> 00:29:44.778
That's, that's definitely what,

00:29:44.917 --> 00:29:46.298
what Q plus is, is pushing.

00:29:47.127 --> 00:29:47.508
Definitely.

00:29:47.528 --> 00:29:48.108
And if you don't feel

00:29:48.148 --> 00:29:49.609
comfortable in a certain space,

00:29:49.650 --> 00:29:52.191
then maybe that space is not for you.

00:29:52.832 --> 00:29:53.311
Exactly.

00:29:53.332 --> 00:29:54.112
It's that simple.

00:29:54.472 --> 00:29:56.114
Was the crop top functional?

00:29:56.173 --> 00:29:57.714
Was it hot enough to wear a crop top?

00:29:57.734 --> 00:29:58.174
Or are you just like,

00:29:58.194 --> 00:29:58.914
I'm just going to wear a crop top?

00:29:58.934 --> 00:29:59.075
Yeah.

00:29:59.095 --> 00:30:00.615
At first, I was like, oh, my gosh.

00:30:00.675 --> 00:30:02.257
I was covering my stomach and whatever.

00:30:02.336 --> 00:30:03.657
But after a while, it's hot.

00:30:03.738 --> 00:30:04.398
It's hot out there.

00:30:04.459 --> 00:30:06.059
I didn't even care.

00:30:07.201 --> 00:30:08.961
I was shredding my stuff.

00:30:09.021 --> 00:30:10.623
It was too hot to carry at one point.

00:30:10.903 --> 00:30:11.242
That part.

00:30:11.282 --> 00:30:12.144
Did you have a spray bottle?

00:30:12.183 --> 00:30:12.443
Just like...

00:30:13.717 --> 00:30:14.938
Yeah, my homegirl had one.

00:30:14.958 --> 00:30:17.019
I was like, thank God.

00:30:17.058 --> 00:30:17.659
Help me out.

00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:19.240
She was spraying all of us.

00:30:20.020 --> 00:30:20.681
Shout out to Cody.

00:30:27.905 --> 00:30:29.507
You mentioned that your dad was a pastor.

00:30:30.426 --> 00:30:31.488
It makes me think,

00:30:32.208 --> 00:30:33.348
how was the relationship

00:30:33.848 --> 00:30:34.869
explained to your dad that

00:30:34.890 --> 00:30:36.371
you're part of the Q Plus community?

00:30:36.570 --> 00:30:37.751
How was that relationship?

00:30:39.211 --> 00:30:40.673
It was not explained.

00:30:41.294 --> 00:30:41.614
Okay.

00:30:42.190 --> 00:30:42.770
Yeah.

00:30:42.830 --> 00:30:44.352
My father passed away before

00:30:44.392 --> 00:30:45.231
we had that talk.

00:30:46.712 --> 00:30:46.973
Um,

00:30:47.933 --> 00:30:49.955
but I'm pretty sure he probably knew like,

00:30:50.056 --> 00:30:51.977
okay, my daughter is a little different,

00:30:52.097 --> 00:30:52.498
you know?

00:30:52.518 --> 00:30:56.701
Um, cause I know he was always trying to,

00:30:56.780 --> 00:30:57.141
you know,

00:30:57.501 --> 00:30:59.123
buy me the most feminine clothes

00:30:59.143 --> 00:30:59.863
he could.

00:31:00.124 --> 00:31:00.443
Yeah.

00:31:01.124 --> 00:31:04.787
Um, all the baby fat and stuff like that.

00:31:04.807 --> 00:31:05.528
He was like, yeah, I got,

00:31:05.847 --> 00:31:06.788
don't worry about the price.

00:31:06.828 --> 00:31:08.069
Like, I just want to make sure you,

00:31:08.230 --> 00:31:09.270
you know, you're,

00:31:09.371 --> 00:31:10.771
you're dressing to this standard, but,

00:31:10.892 --> 00:31:10.991
um,

00:31:11.965 --> 00:31:13.267
Yeah, I'm me.

00:31:13.386 --> 00:31:14.646
I knew my parents knew

00:31:14.727 --> 00:31:16.488
without me having that conversation.

00:31:16.508 --> 00:31:18.449
It's just I always felt I

00:31:18.469 --> 00:31:19.490
needed to be respectful.

00:31:19.549 --> 00:31:20.849
So I didn't have that

00:31:20.890 --> 00:31:21.711
conversation because I

00:31:21.750 --> 00:31:24.511
already knew how what their views were,

00:31:25.352 --> 00:31:25.632
you know?

00:31:25.811 --> 00:31:26.192
Yes.

00:31:26.893 --> 00:31:27.292
Yes.

00:31:27.452 --> 00:31:28.233
I'm like, you know,

00:31:29.094 --> 00:31:30.153
I just keep it to myself.

00:31:30.674 --> 00:31:32.556
My friends knew for the most part.

00:31:34.315 --> 00:31:35.494
But yeah,

00:31:35.654 --> 00:31:37.175
I'm still getting to know myself.

00:31:37.215 --> 00:31:38.675
I'm still putting myself out there.

00:31:39.636 --> 00:31:40.997
It hasn't always been like, yeah,

00:31:41.136 --> 00:31:42.278
I'm out and proud.

00:31:43.137 --> 00:31:46.739
No, it's still growing pain.

00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:48.039
I don't know if that's the right word.

00:31:48.220 --> 00:31:48.759
I'm with you.

00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:49.500
Like you said,

00:31:49.660 --> 00:31:50.800
you're still understanding

00:31:50.941 --> 00:31:52.141
and finding out who you are.

00:31:52.681 --> 00:31:52.961
Yeah.

00:31:53.622 --> 00:31:54.481
Yeah.

00:31:54.662 --> 00:31:55.682
I actually heard someone say this.

00:31:55.701 --> 00:31:57.042
I think it was yesterday.

00:31:57.742 --> 00:31:58.623
The guy was 50,

00:31:58.623 --> 00:32:00.023
but I think it can still relate to us.

00:32:00.084 --> 00:32:00.423
He was like,

00:32:01.003 --> 00:32:02.144
you're not the same person you

00:32:02.183 --> 00:32:02.944
were 20 years ago.

00:32:05.035 --> 00:32:05.596
You know what I mean?

00:32:05.816 --> 00:32:07.436
And there's also like,

00:32:08.057 --> 00:32:09.017
correct me if I'm wrong, people,

00:32:09.076 --> 00:32:10.357
a scientific study that says like,

00:32:11.618 --> 00:32:12.278
so if you didn't know,

00:32:12.298 --> 00:32:14.119
like dust is basically like,

00:32:14.921 --> 00:32:15.540
so if you have a lot of

00:32:15.580 --> 00:32:16.201
dust in your house,

00:32:16.280 --> 00:32:17.342
usually it's because dust

00:32:17.362 --> 00:32:19.042
comes from shedded skin.

00:32:19.782 --> 00:32:20.542
Your skin sheds.

00:32:21.284 --> 00:32:22.144
So that's dust.

00:32:22.964 --> 00:32:26.306
So basically every seven years,

00:32:26.465 --> 00:32:27.846
we've already are

00:32:27.886 --> 00:32:29.127
physically changed because

00:32:30.070 --> 00:32:30.872
You see where I'm going with it?

00:32:31.332 --> 00:32:31.913
Yeah, right.

00:32:31.972 --> 00:32:32.752
Shedding that skin.

00:32:32.993 --> 00:32:33.374
Yes.

00:32:33.554 --> 00:32:34.575
So we're always changing.

00:32:34.615 --> 00:32:36.936
So Connie Clark, young miss,

00:32:37.297 --> 00:32:39.298
seven years from now might

00:32:39.378 --> 00:32:40.319
be a different person,

00:32:40.480 --> 00:32:41.280
meaning like an involved

00:32:41.300 --> 00:32:42.561
person about knowing who she is,

00:32:42.622 --> 00:32:44.123
who she wants, et cetera, et cetera.

00:32:44.482 --> 00:32:45.163
Same thing with me.

00:32:45.644 --> 00:32:46.605
So I think that's kind of cool.

00:32:47.965 --> 00:32:49.027
Yeah.

00:32:49.346 --> 00:32:50.208
Seven years from now,

00:32:50.769 --> 00:32:51.990
I definitely see myself

00:32:53.411 --> 00:32:54.392
being more a part of the

00:32:54.432 --> 00:32:55.752
community and pushing it forward.

00:32:57.913 --> 00:32:59.414
and providing a space, you know,

00:32:59.474 --> 00:33:00.715
because I didn't have that.

00:33:03.317 --> 00:33:03.657
You know,

00:33:03.798 --> 00:33:05.638
I felt like I had to hide and I

00:33:05.659 --> 00:33:07.079
want to make sure that, you know,

00:33:07.099 --> 00:33:08.121
the youth coming up, they don't,

00:33:08.260 --> 00:33:09.741
they feel like they don't have to,

00:33:10.201 --> 00:33:11.163
they can be their authentic

00:33:11.182 --> 00:33:12.323
selves and be comfortable

00:33:12.403 --> 00:33:13.483
and know that it's okay.

00:33:14.384 --> 00:33:15.125
And they don't,

00:33:15.244 --> 00:33:16.246
they don't have to run from,

00:33:16.566 --> 00:33:18.366
from the world, like live in it,

00:33:18.426 --> 00:33:19.887
be yourself, be comfortable.

00:33:19.907 --> 00:33:22.210
And I definitely think that's important.

00:33:22.250 --> 00:33:24.351
So yeah, I see that in my future.

00:33:24.371 --> 00:33:25.311
I'm working towards that now.

00:33:26.325 --> 00:33:28.768
Q plus is definitely helping me with that.

00:33:29.528 --> 00:33:30.670
But now it's time to start

00:33:30.690 --> 00:33:32.211
building something for myself.

00:33:32.932 --> 00:33:33.972
Hey, shout out to you.

00:33:34.032 --> 00:33:34.512
You know what I mean?

00:33:34.532 --> 00:33:36.996
And shout out to Q plus, but you know,

00:33:37.016 --> 00:33:37.415
like they say,

00:33:37.455 --> 00:33:38.576
Rome wasn't built in a day.

00:33:38.596 --> 00:33:39.597
That's true.

00:33:39.917 --> 00:33:42.480
Just baby steps, as they say, you know,

00:33:42.520 --> 00:33:43.481
and for everybody who's

00:33:43.501 --> 00:33:45.644
just joining us today on the live show,

00:33:46.183 --> 00:33:47.305
We're here with Young Miss.

00:33:47.865 --> 00:33:49.547
We just talked about her being in Q+,

00:33:49.727 --> 00:33:50.686
rocking the crop top.

00:33:50.788 --> 00:33:53.048
Rocking the crop top.

00:33:54.250 --> 00:33:55.550
You guys are on The Empire.

00:33:55.651 --> 00:33:56.692
Please like the video,

00:33:56.711 --> 00:33:57.833
subscribe to the channel if you haven't.

00:33:57.853 --> 00:33:59.054
We have a lot of amazing

00:33:59.094 --> 00:34:00.115
guests just like her.

00:34:00.615 --> 00:34:01.895
Share it, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:34:01.935 --> 00:34:04.518
But we're going to keep on moving forward.

00:34:04.678 --> 00:34:05.679
So Young Miss,

00:34:05.778 --> 00:34:07.961
you're also a co-host of a

00:34:08.021 --> 00:34:09.882
podcast called The Real Dope Podcast.

00:34:09.942 --> 00:34:10.442
Am I correct?

00:34:10.461 --> 00:34:11.023
Is that the right name?

00:34:11.570 --> 00:34:12.851
Yes, the Dope Podcast.

00:34:12.871 --> 00:34:14.070
The Dope Podcast, forgive me.

00:34:14.090 --> 00:34:15.351
The Dope Podcast, yes.

00:34:15.411 --> 00:34:16.672
Yeah, how did it start?

00:34:18.373 --> 00:34:19.594
What is it about?

00:34:19.695 --> 00:34:20.775
What can people expect when

00:34:20.795 --> 00:34:21.615
they're checking it out?

00:34:21.956 --> 00:34:22.576
Can you give us a little

00:34:22.596 --> 00:34:23.376
breakdown about that?

00:34:24.336 --> 00:34:26.597
Yeah, I started it with my homegirls.

00:34:27.219 --> 00:34:30.239
Shout out to Charmin Elise and Big Keela.

00:34:31.181 --> 00:34:31.601
Right now,

00:34:31.661 --> 00:34:33.161
it's me and Big Keela running it.

00:34:33.922 --> 00:34:36.923
We basically just wanted to

00:34:37.264 --> 00:34:37.965
start a podcast.

00:34:37.985 --> 00:34:39.324
We were already really close.

00:34:39.585 --> 00:34:40.445
We were coworkers.

00:34:40.918 --> 00:34:41.659
And we would always just

00:34:41.699 --> 00:34:43.340
talk about everything that was going on.

00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:45.902
So it just made sense, you know.

00:34:46.663 --> 00:34:48.643
And the podcast is for the culture.

00:34:49.304 --> 00:34:51.106
Whenever anybody asks me, I say that.

00:34:51.146 --> 00:34:53.086
We talk about everything culture-related,

00:34:54.208 --> 00:34:55.748
usually Black culture because, you know,

00:34:55.768 --> 00:34:56.329
we're Black.

00:34:56.909 --> 00:34:59.130
But anyway, yeah,

00:34:59.190 --> 00:35:00.172
we just like to talk about

00:35:00.192 --> 00:35:01.052
the hot topics.

00:35:01.733 --> 00:35:02.853
Sometimes we gossip on there,

00:35:02.873 --> 00:35:03.673
but it's okay.

00:35:04.974 --> 00:35:06.596
And we like to bring on guests as well,

00:35:07.817 --> 00:35:09.538
get their opinion on what's going on,

00:35:09.577 --> 00:35:10.659
get their backstory.

00:35:11.733 --> 00:35:12.974
And yeah,

00:35:12.994 --> 00:35:15.655
just make fun of each other and have fun.

00:35:15.675 --> 00:35:19.077
That's dope.

00:35:19.097 --> 00:35:21.057
You know, I was talking to,

00:35:21.777 --> 00:35:22.418
can't think of his name,

00:35:22.438 --> 00:35:23.699
but it's handles the music homie.

00:35:24.259 --> 00:35:25.219
And he was saying, you know,

00:35:25.380 --> 00:35:26.280
one of the hardest things,

00:35:26.340 --> 00:35:27.221
and I think I'm gonna pass

00:35:27.240 --> 00:35:27.621
this on to you.

00:35:27.641 --> 00:35:28.262
See if you agree.

00:35:28.661 --> 00:35:29.501
One of the hardest things is

00:35:29.541 --> 00:35:30.963
finding the right co-host,

00:35:31.503 --> 00:35:32.523
someone that you can vibe

00:35:32.563 --> 00:35:33.704
with to make things work

00:35:33.764 --> 00:35:34.505
out the right way.

00:35:35.125 --> 00:35:35.405
Yeah.

00:35:35.485 --> 00:35:36.326
What's your thoughts on that?

00:35:37.186 --> 00:35:37.846
Definitely.

00:35:37.947 --> 00:35:39.746
Because like I say, I don't talk much,

00:35:39.887 --> 00:35:40.467
but yeah,

00:35:41.266 --> 00:35:42.706
My co-host, Big Keela,

00:35:43.188 --> 00:35:44.248
she talked too much.

00:35:44.528 --> 00:35:47.952
So it's like, it's the perfect balance,

00:35:48.012 --> 00:35:48.791
you know?

00:35:49.353 --> 00:35:50.693
And she brings that out of

00:35:50.733 --> 00:35:51.994
me because I'll be

00:35:52.155 --> 00:35:53.797
commenting on the things she's saying,

00:35:53.817 --> 00:35:54.516
you know?

00:35:55.637 --> 00:35:56.998
So it works really well.

00:35:57.018 --> 00:35:58.621
And that's my OG.

00:35:58.701 --> 00:36:00.021
We bounce, you know...

00:36:00.996 --> 00:36:03.956
We hang out and we be shooting.

00:36:03.976 --> 00:36:05.137
I almost curse right now.

00:36:05.157 --> 00:36:06.077
I don't know if I can curse.

00:36:06.097 --> 00:36:06.697
Yeah, you could.

00:36:06.717 --> 00:36:07.177
Be yourself.

00:36:07.197 --> 00:36:07.757
Be yourself.

00:36:07.998 --> 00:36:08.858
We be shooting the shit.

00:36:08.878 --> 00:36:09.338
You feel me?

00:36:09.358 --> 00:36:10.719
So we just take that.

00:36:10.759 --> 00:36:11.239
We take that.

00:36:11.259 --> 00:36:12.398
We put it on the podcast.

00:36:12.438 --> 00:36:13.820
And you can see our

00:36:13.900 --> 00:36:16.000
friendship when you watch the podcast.

00:36:16.521 --> 00:36:17.460
And that matters.

00:36:17.521 --> 00:36:17.780
You know,

00:36:17.800 --> 00:36:19.561
you don't want to be on a podcast

00:36:19.581 --> 00:36:20.561
with people you don't know.

00:36:20.641 --> 00:36:21.981
And then, you know,

00:36:22.041 --> 00:36:23.041
everybody's stiff because

00:36:23.161 --> 00:36:25.882
there's no connection between everybody,

00:36:25.922 --> 00:36:26.322
you know?

00:36:26.523 --> 00:36:28.143
Yeah, like, so...

00:36:28.731 --> 00:36:29.331
That part.

00:36:29.693 --> 00:36:29.873
Yeah,

00:36:29.932 --> 00:36:31.333
I'm always happy to film with her

00:36:31.353 --> 00:36:32.695
because it's like, it's another day.

00:36:33.735 --> 00:36:35.436
Yeah, I think I saw a clip recently.

00:36:35.496 --> 00:36:37.077
I think, I forget her name,

00:36:37.097 --> 00:36:38.478
but I believe she was a Muslim woman.

00:36:38.538 --> 00:36:38.637
Yes.

00:36:39.498 --> 00:36:40.358
And she was talking about,

00:36:40.378 --> 00:36:41.360
I think it's one of your recent ones,

00:36:41.420 --> 00:36:42.340
and she was talking about...

00:36:45.222 --> 00:36:46.503
How about being like

00:36:46.543 --> 00:36:47.965
masculine and not masculine

00:36:48.005 --> 00:36:49.307
or something along those lines?

00:36:49.327 --> 00:36:51.110
And it depends on the type

00:36:51.130 --> 00:36:52.311
of dude she's around and the environment.

00:36:52.331 --> 00:36:52.452
Yeah,

00:36:52.472 --> 00:36:54.994
the people she's around or how she acts.

00:36:55.034 --> 00:36:56.056
Yeah, shout out to Madi.

00:36:56.197 --> 00:36:57.759
We had Madi on our last episode,

00:36:57.778 --> 00:36:59.061
season two, episode four.

00:37:00.597 --> 00:37:00.858
Yeah.

00:37:00.898 --> 00:37:01.938
So I thought that was interesting.

00:37:01.978 --> 00:37:02.918
You know, there's been a,

00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:04.659
I'm pretty sure you've probably seen it,

00:37:04.699 --> 00:37:06.300
but it seems like, excuse me,

00:37:06.820 --> 00:37:07.461
right now there's going to

00:37:07.481 --> 00:37:08.661
be like a lot of talk about

00:37:08.702 --> 00:37:11.563
relationships and masculine and feminine.

00:37:11.603 --> 00:37:13.724
And have you been hearing a lot about this,

00:37:14.085 --> 00:37:14.885
these talks that's been

00:37:14.905 --> 00:37:15.706
happening a lot lately?

00:37:16.306 --> 00:37:17.286
That's always,

00:37:17.367 --> 00:37:18.967
people always want to debate on,

00:37:19.628 --> 00:37:21.628
should you go 50-50 or, you know,

00:37:21.708 --> 00:37:23.170
should the man pay for everything?

00:37:23.190 --> 00:37:24.110
Like, yeah, that's,

00:37:24.829 --> 00:37:25.811
that's always interesting.

00:37:28.230 --> 00:37:28.630
Yeah.

00:37:29.050 --> 00:37:29.971
I guess I got to ask,

00:37:29.990 --> 00:37:30.652
what's your thoughts on

00:37:30.692 --> 00:37:33.173
that and how do you move on that?

00:37:33.193 --> 00:37:34.614
Because I know you have a partner,

00:37:34.695 --> 00:37:36.815
you're married, correct me if I'm wrong.

00:37:37.177 --> 00:37:38.538
What's your thoughts on that

00:37:38.557 --> 00:37:39.958
whole thing and how do you guys move?

00:37:41.639 --> 00:37:44.702
I feel like, guys,

00:37:44.742 --> 00:37:45.882
you should always pray for

00:37:45.922 --> 00:37:46.804
the first date.

00:37:46.963 --> 00:37:48.625
I mean, you're taking her out.

00:37:48.704 --> 00:37:49.885
That's a privilege, right?

00:37:50.338 --> 00:37:50.639
You know,

00:37:50.699 --> 00:37:51.719
she didn't have to go out with you.

00:37:51.780 --> 00:37:53.041
You could have went by yourself.

00:37:53.621 --> 00:37:53.862
You know,

00:37:53.882 --> 00:37:55.143
you're in the presence of a

00:37:55.202 --> 00:37:56.143
beautiful young lady.

00:37:56.244 --> 00:37:58.025
So, yeah, pull your wallet out.

00:37:58.965 --> 00:37:59.847
If you can't afford it,

00:38:00.007 --> 00:38:00.887
reschedule the date.

00:38:02.909 --> 00:38:04.570
And then when you guys get together,

00:38:05.110 --> 00:38:06.492
that's when things should be 50-50.

00:38:07.353 --> 00:38:08.173
You know, until then,

00:38:08.193 --> 00:38:09.835
you're courting this woman.

00:38:10.896 --> 00:38:11.836
Yeah, pay for dinner.

00:38:11.856 --> 00:38:12.717
That's the least you could do.

00:38:12.757 --> 00:38:13.518
Get her some drinks.

00:38:13.559 --> 00:38:13.858
You know,

00:38:13.918 --> 00:38:15.480
if she start asking for steak and

00:38:15.539 --> 00:38:16.740
all that, then, you know,

00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:18.643
you just say like, hey, you know,

00:38:19.161 --> 00:38:20.021
I like steak too,

00:38:20.101 --> 00:38:22.244
but I don't think I'm going to be able to,

00:38:22.264 --> 00:38:23.704
you know, afford it.

00:38:23.724 --> 00:38:26.126
I don't know what to say.

00:38:26.306 --> 00:38:28.989
Like, you know, I got you on that or,

00:38:29.028 --> 00:38:29.248
you know,

00:38:29.268 --> 00:38:30.971
I don't know if I can do that or

00:38:31.010 --> 00:38:32.192
this might be the last round.

00:38:32.291 --> 00:38:33.012
Something like that.

00:38:33.253 --> 00:38:33.572
Yeah.

00:38:34.213 --> 00:38:34.514
Yeah.

00:38:35.134 --> 00:38:35.313
Yeah.

00:38:35.353 --> 00:38:36.856
You know,

00:38:36.936 --> 00:38:37.695
one of the things I really like

00:38:37.715 --> 00:38:38.536
what you said, which is like,

00:38:38.577 --> 00:38:40.237
if you can't afford to go on a date,

00:38:40.878 --> 00:38:42.659
then don't ask anybody out for a date.

00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:43.641
Yeah.

00:38:43.661 --> 00:38:44.302
Like what?

00:38:44.402 --> 00:38:45.402
I don't get that.

00:38:45.563 --> 00:38:46.242
I don't get that.

00:38:46.282 --> 00:38:48.184
Like, cause then what is,

00:38:48.695 --> 00:38:49.556
What are we doing?

00:38:49.936 --> 00:38:53.358
You know, but I get like, ladies,

00:38:53.777 --> 00:38:54.998
that's different to me.

00:38:55.418 --> 00:38:58.581
Like, you know, yeah, go get dinner.

00:38:58.641 --> 00:38:59.101
You feel me?

00:38:59.161 --> 00:39:00.643
I feel I don't know.

00:39:00.682 --> 00:39:01.722
I want to go get something to eat.

00:39:01.742 --> 00:39:04.204
I'm going to let him take me out, you know,

00:39:04.684 --> 00:39:04.945
but.

00:39:05.925 --> 00:39:06.365
Yeah.

00:39:06.405 --> 00:39:07.726
But like, yeah, guys,

00:39:07.786 --> 00:39:08.807
if you ain't got the bread,

00:39:08.827 --> 00:39:10.148
just just hold off.

00:39:10.188 --> 00:39:10.949
Let her know, you know.

00:39:11.893 --> 00:39:12.293
Yeah,

00:39:12.594 --> 00:39:13.934
it reminds me because I do think it's

00:39:13.954 --> 00:39:14.835
kind of scandalous because

00:39:14.855 --> 00:39:15.474
some girls are like,

00:39:15.534 --> 00:39:17.255
I don't really care about the dude,

00:39:17.275 --> 00:39:17.974
but I'm hungry.

00:39:18.434 --> 00:39:18.715
Right.

00:39:19.615 --> 00:39:20.556
Scandalous.

00:39:21.056 --> 00:39:22.335
Go get your lunch, girl.

00:39:22.815 --> 00:39:23.755
Oh, you're supporting it?

00:39:24.076 --> 00:39:25.396
Oh, yeah, I'm supporting it.

00:39:25.456 --> 00:39:26.177
Shame on you.

00:39:26.476 --> 00:39:27.177
Shame on you.

00:39:27.536 --> 00:39:28.277
Shame, shame.

00:39:29.016 --> 00:39:29.898
A girl's got to eat.

00:39:31.297 --> 00:39:31.677
Shame.

00:39:31.697 --> 00:39:33.077
Shame.

00:39:34.557 --> 00:39:35.559
And then you find out if you

00:39:35.579 --> 00:39:36.398
really like them or not

00:39:36.458 --> 00:39:37.539
once you go and eat.

00:39:38.614 --> 00:39:40.215
Right?

00:39:40.235 --> 00:39:41.215
Your eyes open up.

00:39:41.255 --> 00:39:42.677
You can see if he's a good guy.

00:39:43.978 --> 00:39:44.918
But she already said she's

00:39:44.938 --> 00:39:45.778
not interested in him.

00:39:45.898 --> 00:39:46.759
She's like, I'm not interested.

00:39:47.539 --> 00:39:47.800
Yeah,

00:39:47.840 --> 00:39:49.300
but maybe she'll be interested after

00:39:49.340 --> 00:39:50.280
she sits down and talks

00:39:50.360 --> 00:39:51.041
with him because he just

00:39:51.061 --> 00:39:51.782
bought her lunch.

00:39:52.461 --> 00:39:53.023
You're lying.

00:39:53.063 --> 00:39:54.222
Why are you lying to us?

00:39:54.583 --> 00:39:55.443
What you mean?

00:39:55.744 --> 00:39:57.105
This is real talk right now.

00:39:57.224 --> 00:39:58.164
Whoever's in the comments,

00:39:58.985 --> 00:40:00.786
let us know what you think.

00:40:01.306 --> 00:40:02.188
Comment down below, folks.

00:40:02.248 --> 00:40:02.987
Is she being honest?

00:40:05.748 --> 00:40:06.648
Come on.

00:40:06.688 --> 00:40:07.688
Okay.

00:40:07.909 --> 00:40:08.570
That makes sense.

00:40:08.869 --> 00:40:09.570
I know you're not going to

00:40:09.590 --> 00:40:10.931
want to listen to me unless, you know,

00:40:10.972 --> 00:40:11.652
I have your ear.

00:40:11.711 --> 00:40:12.413
How do I get your ear?

00:40:12.452 --> 00:40:13.572
I'm going to buy you dinner.

00:40:14.853 --> 00:40:15.235
Okay.

00:40:15.835 --> 00:40:16.454
Or, you know,

00:40:16.556 --> 00:40:17.956
I guess because there's

00:40:17.976 --> 00:40:19.137
nothing you can never tell

00:40:19.257 --> 00:40:21.119
anybody except being face to face, right?

00:40:21.139 --> 00:40:21.938
Knowing what's going on.

00:40:22.579 --> 00:40:23.159
Exactly.

00:40:23.500 --> 00:40:23.721
Right.

00:40:23.800 --> 00:40:25.001
Which makes so much sense.

00:40:25.822 --> 00:40:29.945
You know, young miss Connie,

00:40:30.925 --> 00:40:31.766
correct me if I'm wrong,

00:40:32.907 --> 00:40:33.768
but you're into anime and

00:40:33.788 --> 00:40:34.387
you're into gaming.

00:40:36.001 --> 00:40:36.481
You know what?

00:40:36.581 --> 00:40:38.181
I'm getting into anime.

00:40:38.461 --> 00:40:38.782
Okay.

00:40:39.501 --> 00:40:43.143
Um, I'm on like season 11 of one piece.

00:40:44.224 --> 00:40:44.804
Um, yeah.

00:40:44.824 --> 00:40:45.403
Long way to go.

00:40:45.425 --> 00:40:47.005
I know.

00:40:47.224 --> 00:40:47.664
I know.

00:40:47.724 --> 00:40:48.025
And I'm,

00:40:48.226 --> 00:40:50.706
I'm like going through these episodes,

00:40:50.746 --> 00:40:52.746
but like, I'm not in a rush because cool.

00:40:52.786 --> 00:40:54.708
I got a show to watch forever.

00:40:54.887 --> 00:40:55.188
You know?

00:40:55.208 --> 00:40:55.487
Yeah.

00:40:56.168 --> 00:40:57.728
Um, definitely love one piece.

00:40:57.748 --> 00:40:58.909
So I'm getting into anime.

00:40:59.849 --> 00:40:59.949
Um,

00:41:02.358 --> 00:41:04.579
I know there's a lot I'm missing in anime,

00:41:04.599 --> 00:41:05.599
so I got to catch up.

00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:06.059
Got you.

00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:07.101
Why'd you start One Piece?

00:41:07.141 --> 00:41:08.260
Why'd you choose One Piece

00:41:08.280 --> 00:41:08.802
out of all of them?

00:41:10.621 --> 00:41:14.023
I was watching, like, K-dramas.

00:41:17.146 --> 00:41:18.266
Was that Korean dramas?

00:41:18.586 --> 00:41:19.567
Yeah, yeah.

00:41:19.586 --> 00:41:20.128
So, like,

00:41:20.827 --> 00:41:22.208
I like romantic comedies and

00:41:22.228 --> 00:41:22.809
things like that.

00:41:22.929 --> 00:41:24.409
So I was watching that, and then it, like,

00:41:24.530 --> 00:41:27.711
randomly came up, like, suggested,

00:41:28.612 --> 00:41:28.972
you know?

00:41:28.992 --> 00:41:30.032
One Piece came up.

00:41:30.952 --> 00:41:31.652
Shout out to Ash.

00:41:31.672 --> 00:41:33.494
Shout out to B-Ryo in the comments, too.

00:41:35.675 --> 00:41:36.456
Shout out to Genesis.

00:41:36.496 --> 00:41:37.217
I see you, too.

00:41:37.597 --> 00:41:40.298
Yeah, you know, hey, he wants some,

00:41:40.358 --> 00:41:42.440
she wants some.

00:41:42.500 --> 00:41:43.099
Everybody wants some.

00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:43.501
Exactly.

00:41:43.561 --> 00:41:44.221
Everybody wins.

00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:45.061
It's a win-win.

00:41:45.541 --> 00:41:48.083
They both want to eat some.

00:41:50.085 --> 00:41:50.724
Exactly.

00:41:51.605 --> 00:41:52.485
My point, exactly.

00:41:53.467 --> 00:41:54.246
Everybody gets fed.

00:41:56.228 --> 00:41:56.949
Korean dramas.

00:41:57.309 --> 00:41:58.670
Yes, Korean dramas.

00:41:59.289 --> 00:42:00.630
One piece came up randomly.

00:42:01.297 --> 00:42:01.496
I'm like,

00:42:01.516 --> 00:42:02.498
let me put this on and see what

00:42:02.518 --> 00:42:03.038
it's about.

00:42:03.378 --> 00:42:04.380
I've been hearing about it.

00:42:04.820 --> 00:42:05.760
And now I'm stuck.

00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:06.942
I really am.

00:42:07.862 --> 00:42:08.842
I'll probably watch it after

00:42:08.862 --> 00:42:09.403
we're done with this.

00:42:10.503 --> 00:42:11.085
I love it.

00:42:11.204 --> 00:42:11.744
I love it.

00:42:12.266 --> 00:42:13.106
And gaming.

00:42:13.327 --> 00:42:13.806
Gaming.

00:42:14.827 --> 00:42:16.048
Shout out to the Gammer Girls.

00:42:16.108 --> 00:42:18.331
Gammer Girls.

00:42:18.610 --> 00:42:19.612
That's me and the homegirls.

00:42:19.811 --> 00:42:21.492
We be playing Fortnite.

00:42:23.574 --> 00:42:25.577
Also, I used to play 2K with the homeboys.

00:42:25.597 --> 00:42:26.838
Shout out to the homeboys.

00:42:26.858 --> 00:42:28.159
Yeah.

00:42:28.755 --> 00:42:30.014
Yeah, I love gaming.

00:42:30.275 --> 00:42:30.795
I love gaming.

00:42:30.835 --> 00:42:31.235
It's fun.

00:42:31.315 --> 00:42:32.396
It's like you get off work

00:42:32.516 --> 00:42:33.717
and you want to shoot

00:42:33.737 --> 00:42:35.077
something or dunk on somebody.

00:42:36.157 --> 00:42:36.797
It's relaxing.

00:42:37.277 --> 00:42:38.119
Got you.

00:42:38.559 --> 00:42:39.719
Are you a Fortnite girl right now?

00:42:39.759 --> 00:42:41.440
Is that your game of play?

00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:43.320
Yeah, that's my game of choice right now,

00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:44.121
Fortnite.

00:42:45.041 --> 00:42:45.760
Got to get on there,

00:42:45.820 --> 00:42:49.483
get our victory royales, get our crowns.

00:42:51.003 --> 00:42:51.724
What's your thoughts on

00:42:51.784 --> 00:42:54.224
paying for skins and stuff like that?

00:42:54.264 --> 00:42:55.085
What's your thoughts on that?

00:42:55.494 --> 00:42:55.735
Yeah,

00:42:55.855 --> 00:42:58.456
I just bought two new skins like two

00:42:58.476 --> 00:43:00.199
days ago.

00:43:00.298 --> 00:43:01.400
And it was like 23 bucks.

00:43:01.440 --> 00:43:02.920
But like I work hard.

00:43:02.981 --> 00:43:04.141
I deserve to, you know,

00:43:04.762 --> 00:43:07.143
I deserve to enjoy my game.

00:43:07.324 --> 00:43:07.724
That part.

00:43:07.744 --> 00:43:08.445
It's my money.

00:43:08.465 --> 00:43:09.266
I can do it.

00:43:09.865 --> 00:43:10.405
Exactly.

00:43:10.467 --> 00:43:11.106
Who's going to stop me?

00:43:11.567 --> 00:43:11.967
That part.

00:43:12.007 --> 00:43:12.467
Exactly.

00:43:12.927 --> 00:43:13.449
Got you.

00:43:13.528 --> 00:43:14.670
You had the pin to my credit.

00:43:14.750 --> 00:43:16.030
Whose name is on this card?

00:43:16.331 --> 00:43:16.490
Right.

00:43:16.510 --> 00:43:17.251
My bills paid.

00:43:17.311 --> 00:43:18.112
What do you want me to do?

00:43:18.532 --> 00:43:18.733
Right.

00:43:19.811 --> 00:43:21.954
Am I going to say no to me for having fun?

00:43:22.295 --> 00:43:22.695
Not at all.

00:43:23.155 --> 00:43:23.436
Never.

00:43:24.016 --> 00:43:24.557
Treat yourself.

00:43:24.577 --> 00:43:25.858
That's how I look at it.

00:43:26.219 --> 00:43:27.561
That part might buy skin today.

00:43:28.222 --> 00:43:28.922
Exactly.

00:43:30.826 --> 00:43:31.346
Exactly.

00:43:31.606 --> 00:43:32.588
And they just put a new Star

00:43:32.628 --> 00:43:33.668
Wars update on there.

00:43:33.708 --> 00:43:34.489
So, you know,

00:43:35.251 --> 00:43:36.552
they got Darth Maul or something.

00:43:37.282 --> 00:43:39.324
May the 4th be with you.

00:43:39.463 --> 00:43:40.023
That part.

00:43:40.543 --> 00:43:42.485
Did you hear about the, speaking of that,

00:43:42.505 --> 00:43:43.364
today's the May 4th,

00:43:43.405 --> 00:43:44.385
which is interesting.

00:43:44.945 --> 00:43:47.146
I feel like today's date, May 4th,

00:43:47.206 --> 00:43:50.206
is more popular than all of

00:43:50.286 --> 00:43:51.148
Black History Month.

00:43:52.027 --> 00:43:52.507
Oh, no.

00:43:54.148 --> 00:43:56.248
That's horrible, but you might be right.

00:43:57.530 --> 00:43:58.269
There are some people in

00:43:58.309 --> 00:43:59.809
Thailand talking about May

00:44:00.050 --> 00:44:01.090
4th today and celebrating it.

00:44:01.150 --> 00:44:01.751
I'm like, wow.

00:44:02.773 --> 00:44:05.074
Interesting.

00:44:06.034 --> 00:44:06.916
That's really sad when you

00:44:06.936 --> 00:44:07.576
put it that way.

00:44:07.596 --> 00:44:08.916
I don't think they celebrate

00:44:08.956 --> 00:44:10.396
Black History Month anywhere else.

00:44:11.177 --> 00:44:11.356
Yeah,

00:44:11.436 --> 00:44:12.657
and these are American people that

00:44:12.717 --> 00:44:13.557
live in Thailand.

00:44:14.539 --> 00:44:15.639
Oh, okay.

00:44:16.798 --> 00:44:18.380
May the 4th has become so popular.

00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:19.099
I'm just saying in

00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:23.222
comparison to... That's horrible.

00:44:24.195 --> 00:44:26.137
But I'm sad that you brought that up.

00:44:26.617 --> 00:44:28.659
Oh, well, sometimes the truth hurts.

00:44:28.780 --> 00:44:29.760
Sometimes the truth hurts.

00:44:30.240 --> 00:44:30.641
Yeah.

00:44:30.661 --> 00:44:31.402
Yeah.

00:44:31.442 --> 00:44:33.003
You definitely need to put

00:44:33.043 --> 00:44:33.744
more energy into

00:44:33.764 --> 00:44:35.166
celebrating Black History Month.

00:44:35.806 --> 00:44:36.407
You know,

00:44:36.688 --> 00:44:38.550
some people say Black History Month.

00:44:39.130 --> 00:44:39.431
I'm sorry.

00:44:39.451 --> 00:44:39.710
Go ahead.

00:44:40.130 --> 00:44:41.572
I said Juneteenth is coming up, though.

00:44:41.813 --> 00:44:44.456
I feel like we we go hard for Juneteenth.

00:44:44.996 --> 00:44:45.516
I know I do.

00:44:46.108 --> 00:44:46.829
Yeah, and people are like,

00:44:46.869 --> 00:44:48.170
what's Juneteenth?

00:44:50.431 --> 00:44:50.811
Educator,

00:44:50.831 --> 00:44:51.731
you want to educate them on

00:44:51.831 --> 00:44:52.672
Juneteenth a little bit?

00:44:52.711 --> 00:44:54.393
Yes, Juneteenth.

00:44:54.432 --> 00:44:57.954
Celebration for the freeing of the slaves.

00:44:57.994 --> 00:44:59.155
Well, they were already free,

00:44:59.175 --> 00:45:00.215
but everybody didn't know.

00:45:00.235 --> 00:45:04.036
We finally got down to the slaves in Texas,

00:45:04.117 --> 00:45:05.358
if I'm not mistaken.

00:45:06.197 --> 00:45:08.119
And now we celebrate the

00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:09.139
fact that everybody knew

00:45:09.159 --> 00:45:09.920
they were free now.

00:45:09.940 --> 00:45:11.340
There we go.

00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:13.221
Y'all have a little history.

00:45:13.300 --> 00:45:14.942
A lot of people say it

00:45:14.961 --> 00:45:16.123
shouldn't be Black History Month.

00:45:16.143 --> 00:45:17.384
It should be Black History Year.

00:45:18.063 --> 00:45:19.405
It's Black History Year.

00:45:20.186 --> 00:45:23.027
I don't just say February.

00:45:23.106 --> 00:45:25.228
I'll say happy Black History Year.

00:45:25.248 --> 00:45:28.110
If I see a Black person,

00:45:28.150 --> 00:45:29.130
I might throw that out there.

00:45:29.150 --> 00:45:31.992
I got to give a shout out to Kanye,

00:45:32.032 --> 00:45:33.574
which is we should focus on

00:45:33.594 --> 00:45:35.195
the future instead of the past.

00:45:35.275 --> 00:45:36.155
I think the past is good too,

00:45:36.195 --> 00:45:37.396
but the things that

00:45:37.963 --> 00:45:39.025
you know, Black Americans,

00:45:39.085 --> 00:45:40.324
Black people are doing in the future.

00:45:40.344 --> 00:45:41.126
I think that's also really

00:45:41.166 --> 00:45:41.965
important as well.

00:45:43.427 --> 00:45:44.047
I agree with that.

00:45:44.407 --> 00:45:45.807
Definitely can't forget the past.

00:45:46.088 --> 00:45:46.367
No.

00:45:47.648 --> 00:45:49.590
But I definitely think we

00:45:49.630 --> 00:45:50.750
focus on a little bit too

00:45:50.789 --> 00:45:52.251
much in our movies.

00:45:53.052 --> 00:45:53.751
You know, like,

00:45:54.371 --> 00:45:55.652
I know I'm getting tired of

00:45:55.693 --> 00:45:56.974
seeing whips and chains.

00:45:57.653 --> 00:45:58.733
And I want to see Black

00:45:58.753 --> 00:46:00.394
people in positions of power.

00:46:01.235 --> 00:46:01.615
Facts.

00:46:01.976 --> 00:46:02.275
Facts.

00:46:02.416 --> 00:46:03.117
And I think it's...

00:46:04.878 --> 00:46:06.498
purposely done that whenever

00:46:06.539 --> 00:46:08.119
they show movies of black

00:46:08.159 --> 00:46:09.119
Americans in the past,

00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:10.739
the first they go to is slavery.

00:46:11.460 --> 00:46:11.840
Yeah.

00:46:12.340 --> 00:46:13.320
To make people think that.

00:46:14.141 --> 00:46:16.661
And I think I have something in my book.

00:46:16.681 --> 00:46:17.342
I'm not sure if it's this

00:46:17.382 --> 00:46:18.623
book here or a different book,

00:46:19.242 --> 00:46:21.923
but you mentioned whips and chains.

00:46:23.143 --> 00:46:24.063
How else do we use that?

00:46:24.083 --> 00:46:24.644
Those words.

00:46:25.985 --> 00:46:26.844
Whips and chains.

00:46:27.865 --> 00:46:29.746
Little son, son.

00:46:30.146 --> 00:46:31.286
That part.

00:46:31.447 --> 00:46:32.106
Which is crazy.

00:46:33.432 --> 00:46:33.672
Yeah.

00:46:33.753 --> 00:46:34.634
That's how they got us.

00:46:35.034 --> 00:46:35.994
That's all we want.

00:46:36.775 --> 00:46:37.695
Working for the man.

00:46:39.576 --> 00:46:40.715
So who's the house, the man,

00:46:40.876 --> 00:46:41.436
the white man.

00:46:43.056 --> 00:46:43.617
Exactly.

00:46:44.057 --> 00:46:44.318
Right.

00:46:45.237 --> 00:46:46.418
Um, my part,

00:46:46.458 --> 00:46:47.858
the person that I'm in love with,

00:46:48.079 --> 00:46:48.880
I call him baby.

00:46:48.900 --> 00:46:55.963
I didn't make the connection on that.

00:46:55.983 --> 00:46:56.382
It's, uh,

00:46:59.929 --> 00:47:00.789
We won't go down that road.

00:47:01.268 --> 00:47:03.010
We won't go down that road.

00:47:03.050 --> 00:47:05.371
We won't go down that road.

00:47:05.771 --> 00:47:07.070
Skipping past that part.

00:47:11.132 --> 00:47:12.873
But basically- Put me on later though,

00:47:12.932 --> 00:47:13.773
because I'm curious.

00:47:14.173 --> 00:47:14.653
So, okay.

00:47:14.693 --> 00:47:17.394
So what's another term that

00:47:17.735 --> 00:47:18.875
usually like rappers or

00:47:19.175 --> 00:47:20.695
Black Americans will use for their house?

00:47:23.213 --> 00:47:23.875
Oh, the crib?

00:47:24.675 --> 00:47:25.114
Mm-hmm.

00:47:25.896 --> 00:47:26.715
What goes in a crib?

00:47:27.436 --> 00:47:27.876
A baby.

00:47:30.139 --> 00:47:30.478
Okay.

00:47:30.498 --> 00:47:31.559
Right.

00:47:32.320 --> 00:47:32.900
So it's like,

00:47:34.081 --> 00:47:34.961
I find the English language

00:47:34.981 --> 00:47:35.722
very fascinating.

00:47:35.742 --> 00:47:36.262
I think it's also

00:47:36.282 --> 00:47:37.182
interesting these terms

00:47:37.202 --> 00:47:39.425
that we use as well, right?

00:47:39.945 --> 00:47:41.025
Yes, got it, got it.

00:47:41.385 --> 00:47:44.047
But I don't think it's by accident.

00:47:44.228 --> 00:47:45.369
That's a different story.

00:47:46.128 --> 00:47:46.389
Right.

00:47:47.230 --> 00:47:51.413
Young Miss, so, you know, for, you know,

00:47:53.367 --> 00:47:55.168
What is something that most people,

00:47:56.030 --> 00:47:57.811
even close people who know you,

00:47:58.831 --> 00:47:59.492
what's something that they

00:47:59.532 --> 00:48:00.172
don't know about you?

00:48:00.213 --> 00:48:01.333
And it could be something small,

00:48:01.414 --> 00:48:03.295
like you like the color red.

00:48:03.356 --> 00:48:04.117
What's something that most

00:48:04.137 --> 00:48:05.016
people don't know about you?

00:48:07.398 --> 00:48:09.280
Oh man, that's a great question,

00:48:09.300 --> 00:48:10.320
because I don't know what

00:48:10.340 --> 00:48:11.342
they don't know.

00:48:14.304 --> 00:48:15.284
My real name?

00:48:19.068 --> 00:48:19.588
Yeah.

00:48:20.489 --> 00:48:21.050
I don't know.

00:48:21.170 --> 00:48:22.471
What do y'all not know?

00:48:22.490 --> 00:48:24.992
I feel like I'm an open book,

00:48:25.012 --> 00:48:26.233
especially on social media.

00:48:26.273 --> 00:48:27.333
I think I tell too much

00:48:27.393 --> 00:48:28.673
about myself at times.

00:48:30.574 --> 00:48:33.036
But yes, my favorite color is red.

00:48:33.096 --> 00:48:33.956
So there we go.

00:48:33.976 --> 00:48:35.938
If you didn't know that, now you know.

00:48:37.438 --> 00:48:38.518
I'm a vegan right now,

00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:40.639
even though my favorite food is cheese.

00:48:40.699 --> 00:48:42.181
So figure that out.

00:48:44.802 --> 00:48:45.681
Not going to say my real

00:48:45.722 --> 00:48:47.242
name because I know I got

00:48:47.262 --> 00:48:48.003
some haters out there

00:48:48.023 --> 00:48:48.923
probably going to Google me.

00:48:51.588 --> 00:48:52.148
I don't know.

00:48:52.568 --> 00:48:54.550
I'm an open book most of the time.

00:48:54.590 --> 00:48:55.690
So if there's something you want to know,

00:48:55.730 --> 00:48:56.771
just hit me up.

00:48:57.570 --> 00:48:57.911
Got you.

00:48:58.851 --> 00:48:59.231
Okay.

00:48:59.311 --> 00:49:00.132
So I guess maybe something

00:49:00.193 --> 00:49:02.574
new is that the vegan thing.

00:49:03.215 --> 00:49:03.554
Yeah.

00:49:04.074 --> 00:49:05.056
How has that been treating you?

00:49:08.237 --> 00:49:08.858
It's tough.

00:49:08.978 --> 00:49:09.378
It's tough.

00:49:09.438 --> 00:49:11.940
I've been a vegetarian for six years.

00:49:12.260 --> 00:49:12.599
Okay.

00:49:13.420 --> 00:49:15.001
Vegan is different because, like I said,

00:49:15.121 --> 00:49:15.782
I love cheese.

00:49:15.842 --> 00:49:17.023
You can put it on everything

00:49:17.043 --> 00:49:17.822
and it makes it good.

00:49:17.842 --> 00:49:18.403
I'm so...

00:49:19.527 --> 00:49:22.610
Yeah, so even salads, I'm like, man,

00:49:22.650 --> 00:49:23.331
I can't just put some

00:49:23.351 --> 00:49:24.231
cheese on here real quick.

00:49:24.251 --> 00:49:27.574
That part.

00:49:27.815 --> 00:49:28.235
But no,

00:49:28.315 --> 00:49:31.099
it definitely takes dedication and

00:49:31.179 --> 00:49:31.898
willpower.

00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:35.443
That's something I need to work on anyway.

00:49:36.324 --> 00:49:39.226
What made you want to go vegan?

00:49:40.748 --> 00:49:41.208
My weight.

00:49:42.268 --> 00:49:43.269
Trying to lose weight.

00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:44.518
You know,

00:49:44.539 --> 00:49:46.920
I gained weight being a vegetarian.

00:49:47.739 --> 00:49:49.139
So that didn't make sense to me.

00:49:49.239 --> 00:49:49.860
So, you know,

00:49:49.880 --> 00:49:50.920
it's just the next step is

00:49:51.119 --> 00:49:52.201
just cutting out what I

00:49:52.221 --> 00:49:53.860
think is the problem.

00:49:54.940 --> 00:49:55.601
And that's dairy.

00:49:56.402 --> 00:49:57.382
And it makes my stomach hurt.

00:49:57.442 --> 00:49:59.742
So, I mean, two birds, one stone.

00:50:00.842 --> 00:50:01.222
Yeah.

00:50:01.463 --> 00:50:02.943
Have you been feeling the difference?

00:50:04.742 --> 00:50:05.382
I've lost weight.

00:50:05.724 --> 00:50:07.664
And that's the goal.

00:50:07.744 --> 00:50:08.364
So, hey.

00:50:08.384 --> 00:50:08.903
That's a plus.

00:50:09.264 --> 00:50:10.284
Yep, I'm going to stick with it.

00:50:11.105 --> 00:50:11.945
You know, they say...

00:50:13.273 --> 00:50:14.355
So, and this kind of makes sense,

00:50:14.414 --> 00:50:16.416
like dairy,

00:50:16.456 --> 00:50:19.958
which is the byproduct of milk

00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:23.061
to help feed a calf to become a cow.

00:50:23.581 --> 00:50:24.001
Exactly.

00:50:24.802 --> 00:50:25.842
So it's not meant for us to

00:50:25.902 --> 00:50:27.164
drink in the first place, right?

00:50:27.804 --> 00:50:29.085
At all, at all.

00:50:29.326 --> 00:50:31.588
And I don't, I haven't drank milk.

00:50:33.708 --> 00:50:34.670
Well, being vegetarian,

00:50:34.710 --> 00:50:35.530
I wasn't drinking milk,

00:50:35.650 --> 00:50:36.690
not eating eggs already.

00:50:36.710 --> 00:50:37.271
So it's like.

00:50:38.289 --> 00:50:40.771
But I always, I always use that point.

00:50:40.811 --> 00:50:43.432
Like milk is for a baby cow.

00:50:43.672 --> 00:50:45.074
Like, so you're drinking it.

00:50:45.094 --> 00:50:46.233
You're going to be the baby cow,

00:50:46.653 --> 00:50:47.135
essentially.

00:50:47.295 --> 00:50:48.054
You feel me?

00:50:48.215 --> 00:50:48.394
Yeah.

00:50:48.876 --> 00:50:51.117
It's just not designed for our biology,

00:50:51.137 --> 00:50:51.496
right?

00:50:51.717 --> 00:50:53.057
That's why we have upset

00:50:53.077 --> 00:50:54.137
stomach when we have dairy.

00:50:54.157 --> 00:50:54.958
Exactly.

00:50:54.978 --> 00:50:56.119
It's not for biology.

00:50:56.619 --> 00:50:57.480
It's not for us.

00:50:57.880 --> 00:50:58.340
Yeah.

00:50:59.021 --> 00:50:59.300
And it's,

00:51:00.942 --> 00:51:02.702
I want to make kudos to you being like,

00:51:03.103 --> 00:51:04.382
you know, trying these new things out.

00:51:04.403 --> 00:51:05.184
Yeah.

00:51:06.411 --> 00:51:07.411
what I find funny about a

00:51:07.431 --> 00:51:08.612
lot of vegetarians and you're like,

00:51:08.773 --> 00:51:10.253
I gained weight as a vegetarian.

00:51:10.293 --> 00:51:11.474
Like that doesn't make sense.

00:51:11.735 --> 00:51:12.016
Yeah.

00:51:12.076 --> 00:51:12.496
A lot.

00:51:13.277 --> 00:51:14.498
And so what kind of happens

00:51:14.577 --> 00:51:15.778
is that what I've noticed

00:51:15.798 --> 00:51:17.039
from certain vegetarians, they're like,

00:51:17.099 --> 00:51:19.402
you know, I'm a vegetarian, but like,

00:51:19.442 --> 00:51:21.182
I'll just eat cereal pasta

00:51:21.603 --> 00:51:23.605
and like a vegan burger or veggie burger.

00:51:23.625 --> 00:51:24.326
And this was like, well,

00:51:24.766 --> 00:51:25.606
where's the veggies?

00:51:26.367 --> 00:51:26.648
Right.

00:51:27.507 --> 00:51:27.909
For real.

00:51:27.929 --> 00:51:28.748
There's a lot of bread and

00:51:28.789 --> 00:51:33.132
cheese years of bread, cheese, beer,

00:51:34.115 --> 00:51:36.438
that was my diet for the six years.

00:51:36.458 --> 00:51:38.338
So yeah, it's definitely,

00:51:38.438 --> 00:51:39.860
definitely a lot of veggies now.

00:51:41.021 --> 00:51:41.201
Yeah.

00:51:41.221 --> 00:51:42.242
It's like, where are the veggies at?

00:51:42.282 --> 00:51:43.081
Vegetarian.

00:51:43.262 --> 00:51:45.304
Incorporate, make the word make sense.

00:51:45.943 --> 00:51:46.625
Exactly.

00:51:46.885 --> 00:51:47.625
Incorporate it.

00:51:47.704 --> 00:51:48.826
So I said that was interesting.

00:51:49.346 --> 00:51:49.646
Right.

00:51:49.827 --> 00:51:51.307
I was just a Tarian at that point.

00:51:51.327 --> 00:51:52.208
Cause there was no veggies.

00:51:52.307 --> 00:51:53.409
That part, you're just Tarian.

00:51:53.548 --> 00:51:54.909
You're just Tarian through food.

00:51:54.929 --> 00:51:56.030
Tarian.

00:51:56.130 --> 00:51:56.710
Exactly.

00:51:56.731 --> 00:52:00.634
Um, you know, uh, I won't say,

00:52:00.653 --> 00:52:02.175
I'll just say Mrs. Clark.

00:52:03.175 --> 00:52:03.275
Um,

00:52:04.628 --> 00:52:05.927
I heard something and I believe this,

00:52:05.969 --> 00:52:07.668
which is you said you don't

00:52:07.688 --> 00:52:09.389
want to give your full name

00:52:09.429 --> 00:52:10.210
out there because you don't

00:52:10.230 --> 00:52:11.510
want the haters to Google you and blah,

00:52:11.550 --> 00:52:11.951
blah, blah.

00:52:12.610 --> 00:52:16.072
And I believe that you're

00:52:16.092 --> 00:52:17.313
not doing anything right if

00:52:17.333 --> 00:52:18.132
you don't have haters.

00:52:18.793 --> 00:52:19.913
But you're doing things

00:52:19.972 --> 00:52:21.074
right when you do have haters.

00:52:21.893 --> 00:52:22.233
Okay.

00:52:23.855 --> 00:52:24.534
I'll take that.

00:52:25.474 --> 00:52:25.856
Say it again?

00:52:26.315 --> 00:52:27.215
I said I'll take that.

00:52:27.795 --> 00:52:28.076
Yes.

00:52:28.315 --> 00:52:28.956
Because I've been trying to

00:52:28.976 --> 00:52:29.737
figure it out too.

00:52:30.536 --> 00:52:32.717
I always feel like I'm not

00:52:33.498 --> 00:52:34.759
trying to bother nobody.

00:52:34.838 --> 00:52:37.739
I'm not hating on nobody myself.

00:52:37.880 --> 00:52:39.199
So, you know, when I get the head,

00:52:39.239 --> 00:52:40.340
I'm like, man, what did I do?

00:52:41.081 --> 00:52:41.440
You know,

00:52:41.481 --> 00:52:45.581
but I guess I'm doing something right.

00:52:45.681 --> 00:52:46.222
I don't know.

00:52:47.882 --> 00:52:49.282
And so I'll go a little deeper into it.

00:52:49.302 --> 00:52:50.302
And it's just my perspective

00:52:50.322 --> 00:52:51.603
of how I took the thing was,

00:52:51.663 --> 00:52:53.342
is that you're doing

00:52:53.443 --> 00:52:55.403
something that they can't do.

00:52:56.443 --> 00:52:57.563
So all they can do is

00:52:57.963 --> 00:52:59.105
criticize because they

00:52:59.125 --> 00:53:00.065
can't do what you're doing.

00:53:01.596 --> 00:53:02.496
Otherwise they would do it

00:53:02.777 --> 00:53:03.878
and they can't talk.

00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:05.518
That's true.

00:53:06.039 --> 00:53:07.141
Right?

00:53:07.161 --> 00:53:08.262
I want you to also think about this.

00:53:08.902 --> 00:53:09.862
Anybody that you know is

00:53:09.902 --> 00:53:11.083
productive and successful,

00:53:11.603 --> 00:53:13.186
how much shit talking do they do?

00:53:15.588 --> 00:53:18.230
There's no time to shit talk.

00:53:18.429 --> 00:53:18.889
Yeah.

00:53:19.771 --> 00:53:20.110
Right.

00:53:20.552 --> 00:53:20.952
Yeah.

00:53:21.592 --> 00:53:21.952
I hear you.

00:53:22.432 --> 00:53:22.673
Yeah.

00:53:23.114 --> 00:53:24.295
So you're doing something

00:53:24.375 --> 00:53:25.416
right when people are like, man.

00:53:28.617 --> 00:53:28.978
Right.

00:53:29.739 --> 00:53:30.239
As opposed to if

00:53:31.184 --> 00:53:32.505
If you weren't doing anything right,

00:53:32.525 --> 00:53:33.746
then people wouldn't say anything.

00:53:33.766 --> 00:53:34.405
They were like, okay.

00:53:35.686 --> 00:53:36.007
Whatever.

00:53:37.307 --> 00:53:37.628
Yeah.

00:53:37.969 --> 00:53:39.349
There's people who hate on LeBron.

00:53:40.411 --> 00:53:41.431
I'm giving them something to

00:53:41.471 --> 00:53:43.472
criticize because I'm doing something.

00:53:44.313 --> 00:53:44.594
Yeah,

00:53:44.673 --> 00:53:45.793
because you got something going on

00:53:45.813 --> 00:53:46.074
for you.

00:53:46.875 --> 00:53:47.135
Yeah.

00:53:47.936 --> 00:53:49.217
If you had nothing going on for you...

00:53:50.717 --> 00:53:51.077
whatever.

00:53:51.257 --> 00:53:52.659
We'll just drive right back.

00:53:52.719 --> 00:53:53.179
Like you said,

00:53:53.199 --> 00:53:55.280
they criticized LeBron and

00:53:55.340 --> 00:53:57.041
he's one of the best.

00:53:57.121 --> 00:53:58.802
Not the GOAT because that's Kobe.

00:53:58.822 --> 00:54:00.905
Okay.

00:54:01.085 --> 00:54:04.827
Throw that out there.

00:54:04.907 --> 00:54:05.427
We caught it.

00:54:07.028 --> 00:54:07.389
All right.

00:54:07.509 --> 00:54:08.269
As long as y'all know.

00:54:08.650 --> 00:54:09.090
Got you.

00:54:09.931 --> 00:54:10.710
RIP to Kobe, man.

00:54:10.751 --> 00:54:11.512
He was a great man.

00:54:13.193 --> 00:54:15.094
Man, you know, a quick bypass.

00:54:15.114 --> 00:54:15.735
I always wanted to

00:54:17.014 --> 00:54:18.414
I was so curious to see what

00:54:18.715 --> 00:54:20.356
his plans were after retiring.

00:54:20.376 --> 00:54:22.016
Cause what he had like less,

00:54:22.036 --> 00:54:22.938
maybe less than a year,

00:54:22.978 --> 00:54:24.018
less than two years before

00:54:24.059 --> 00:54:24.938
he died when he retired.

00:54:25.760 --> 00:54:26.119
Right.

00:54:26.219 --> 00:54:26.621
Like that.

00:54:27.320 --> 00:54:28.382
And he was like getting into

00:54:28.442 --> 00:54:30.742
like venture capitalism and

00:54:30.802 --> 00:54:31.784
all this investment stuff

00:54:31.824 --> 00:54:34.565
and not man really would

00:54:34.585 --> 00:54:36.007
have wished could have seen his vision.

00:54:37.588 --> 00:54:39.009
I know he had big plans.

00:54:39.068 --> 00:54:40.510
You could see, you could see it.

00:54:40.570 --> 00:54:42.210
It was like, something was brewing.

00:54:42.251 --> 00:54:43.351
Something was about to happen.

00:54:44.771 --> 00:54:45.711
I feel like maybe he was

00:54:45.751 --> 00:54:47.472
going to invest in women's sports.

00:54:48.833 --> 00:54:49.773
He was bringing a lot of

00:54:49.833 --> 00:54:51.434
attention to the WNBA.

00:54:53.253 --> 00:54:55.054
His little girl, rest in peace to Gigi,

00:54:55.094 --> 00:54:56.295
she was playing basketball.

00:54:56.735 --> 00:54:58.215
So I thought maybe that was coming next,

00:54:58.255 --> 00:55:01.436
maybe investing in a WNBA team.

00:55:02.777 --> 00:55:04.036
He also had endorsements.

00:55:04.056 --> 00:55:05.878
I forgot the name of the energy drink.

00:55:06.018 --> 00:55:08.318
But, yeah, he was doing a lot.

00:55:08.358 --> 00:55:10.918
He was doing a lot right before he passed.

00:55:11.018 --> 00:55:11.398
Yeah.

00:55:12.068 --> 00:55:13.748
It does kind of, you know,

00:55:14.289 --> 00:55:15.630
it sucks to not be able to

00:55:16.210 --> 00:55:17.269
know what was coming next

00:55:17.309 --> 00:55:18.411
or we'll never get that.

00:55:18.951 --> 00:55:19.231
Yeah.

00:55:19.871 --> 00:55:20.170
Yeah.

00:55:20.431 --> 00:55:20.911
It's crazy.

00:55:20.931 --> 00:55:22.731
And that just reminds me, like, you know,

00:55:23.391 --> 00:55:24.612
while we're here on this planet,

00:55:24.672 --> 00:55:26.652
we really have to do what

00:55:26.693 --> 00:55:28.313
we love and find our purpose,

00:55:29.472 --> 00:55:30.253
whatever that may be.

00:55:30.273 --> 00:55:31.653
It's a range.

00:55:31.833 --> 00:55:32.713
But we have to definitely do

00:55:32.753 --> 00:55:33.914
what makes us happy and do

00:55:33.934 --> 00:55:35.914
what we love and serve.

00:55:35.934 --> 00:55:37.074
Yeah.

00:55:37.768 --> 00:55:38.148
Young Miss,

00:55:38.168 --> 00:55:38.989
I want to thank you so much for

00:55:39.009 --> 00:55:39.849
being on The Empire.

00:55:40.429 --> 00:55:41.409
Can you please tell us all

00:55:41.449 --> 00:55:41.989
some of the current

00:55:42.010 --> 00:55:42.969
projects that you're working on?

00:55:44.791 --> 00:55:47.771
Yeah, so Local Celebrity is out now.

00:55:48.391 --> 00:55:49.592
Please go support that.

00:55:51.974 --> 00:55:53.313
Right now I'm throwing shows.

00:55:54.235 --> 00:55:55.375
I'm available if anybody

00:55:55.394 --> 00:55:56.976
needs to book me as a DJ.

00:55:58.036 --> 00:56:00.177
I'm working on community work,

00:56:00.217 --> 00:56:01.697
so stay tuned for that.

00:56:01.998 --> 00:56:03.677
I'm going to be a part of some roundtables,

00:56:03.797 --> 00:56:05.139
LGBT roundtables.

00:56:07.023 --> 00:56:08.724
also discussing education,

00:56:10.284 --> 00:56:12.106
just trying to balance it all.

00:56:13.726 --> 00:56:15.168
I'm really trying to be everywhere.

00:56:15.188 --> 00:56:17.650
I need a nap, honestly,

00:56:17.849 --> 00:56:22.152
but just stay tapped in with me.

00:56:22.773 --> 00:56:23.873
I'm doing a lot and I hope

00:56:23.913 --> 00:56:25.775
to see everyone who

00:56:25.795 --> 00:56:27.416
supports me or all the new

00:56:27.456 --> 00:56:28.916
people who don't know who I am.

00:56:28.956 --> 00:56:30.978
Just pull up, see what I do.

00:56:33.385 --> 00:56:33.907
I love that.

00:56:33.967 --> 00:56:35.251
And when you said nap, I just think,

00:56:35.492 --> 00:56:36.114
are you cranky?

00:56:36.135 --> 00:56:37.278
Are you cranky?

00:56:38.438 --> 00:56:38.918
Always.

00:56:38.938 --> 00:56:40.280
I got you.

00:56:40.300 --> 00:56:41.521
Give her a Snickers bar or

00:56:41.561 --> 00:56:42.141
something to eat.

00:56:42.300 --> 00:56:42.862
She cranky.

00:56:43.641 --> 00:56:44.762
Yeah, no Snickers.

00:56:44.842 --> 00:56:45.483
I'm on a diet.

00:56:45.543 --> 00:56:48.625
Give her an apple and a nap.

00:56:48.684 --> 00:56:49.525
There we go.

00:56:49.565 --> 00:56:50.126
I'll take that.

00:56:50.246 --> 00:56:50.766
Apple a day.

00:56:50.786 --> 00:56:51.967
There we go.

00:56:52.347 --> 00:56:53.748
I see a guitar in the background.

00:56:53.768 --> 00:56:54.967
Do you play a little guitar?

00:56:55.568 --> 00:56:57.150
No, my wife plays guitar.

00:56:57.190 --> 00:56:58.289
Very talented.

00:56:58.610 --> 00:56:59.050
Uh-huh.

00:56:59.110 --> 00:57:00.150
Shout out to the wifey.

00:57:00.592 --> 00:57:00.972
Yes.

00:57:01.052 --> 00:57:02.592
If you guys come to the show today,

00:57:02.612 --> 00:57:04.213
Fiesta in the Galaxy Far,

00:57:04.253 --> 00:57:06.594
Far Away will be at the LAF Compound.

00:57:07.298 --> 00:57:08.099
She's going to show off her

00:57:08.139 --> 00:57:09.239
guitar skills later.

00:57:09.280 --> 00:57:10.141
Shout out to Ty.

00:57:10.161 --> 00:57:12.021
Yeah.

00:57:12.041 --> 00:57:13.581
We both going to go and show

00:57:13.641 --> 00:57:14.503
up and show out later.

00:57:14.563 --> 00:57:16.063
So I hope to see some of you guys there.

00:57:16.864 --> 00:57:17.244
Yeah.

00:57:17.644 --> 00:57:18.525
Did you and your wife

00:57:18.565 --> 00:57:20.565
connect through music?

00:57:20.666 --> 00:57:21.947
Is that how you guys kind of connected?

00:57:22.907 --> 00:57:24.047
No, we met online.

00:57:25.329 --> 00:57:27.168
Oh, so you're,

00:57:27.730 --> 00:57:28.889
you're one of the people that can say,

00:57:28.929 --> 00:57:30.070
you know, online dating works.

00:57:30.610 --> 00:57:30.891
Yeah.

00:57:31.311 --> 00:57:31.552
Yeah.

00:57:31.751 --> 00:57:33.193
I, I'm definitely an example.

00:57:33.632 --> 00:57:33.733
Um,

00:57:34.911 --> 00:57:37.012
Sometimes you swipe on the right person.

00:57:38.012 --> 00:57:38.452
Got you.

00:57:38.873 --> 00:57:39.512
Was it Grindr?

00:57:40.914 --> 00:57:41.414
Grindr?

00:57:41.434 --> 00:57:46.635
I'm pretty sure Grindr's for guys.

00:57:47.155 --> 00:57:48.054
Oh, I don't know.

00:57:48.155 --> 00:57:48.695
I don't know.

00:57:48.715 --> 00:57:50.115
I don't know.

00:57:50.135 --> 00:57:52.056
I don't know.

00:57:52.856 --> 00:57:54.516
Shout out to the homeboys who use Grindr.

00:57:54.536 --> 00:57:59.378
No, it was an app called Her.

00:57:59.398 --> 00:58:00.338
So shout out to Her.

00:58:00.619 --> 00:58:01.838
You should probably reach out.

00:58:03.012 --> 00:58:04.072
and tell them what happened

00:58:04.092 --> 00:58:04.932
so we could get like a

00:58:05.072 --> 00:58:06.054
commercial or something.

00:58:06.193 --> 00:58:06.554
That part.

00:58:06.574 --> 00:58:06.753
Hey,

00:58:06.813 --> 00:58:08.135
you might be able to get a sponsorship

00:58:08.175 --> 00:58:08.655
low key.

00:58:08.695 --> 00:58:10.536
Maybe for the, think about that.

00:58:10.556 --> 00:58:11.797
Yeah, sure.

00:58:11.817 --> 00:58:13.137
They could sponsor our next

00:58:13.197 --> 00:58:13.958
anniversary trip.

00:58:14.637 --> 00:58:15.038
That part.

00:58:15.057 --> 00:58:15.677
Hey, they can,

00:58:16.199 --> 00:58:19.400
they can probably sponsor you as a DJ,

00:58:19.440 --> 00:58:20.880
sponsor you for, you know,

00:58:21.061 --> 00:58:22.262
maybe the podcast that you do.

00:58:22.967 --> 00:58:23.487
There we go.

00:58:23.766 --> 00:58:24.306
Just saying.

00:58:24.666 --> 00:58:25.527
Like, how you thinking?

00:58:25.748 --> 00:58:26.387
Just saying.

00:58:26.628 --> 00:58:27.387
Let me make a note.

00:58:27.628 --> 00:58:30.228
Please make a note.

00:58:30.248 --> 00:58:30.688
10% over here.

00:58:30.728 --> 00:58:31.128
Don't forget, 10%.

00:58:31.228 --> 00:58:31.949
I got you.

00:58:32.028 --> 00:58:32.528
I got you.

00:58:32.548 --> 00:58:33.289
That's it.

00:58:33.668 --> 00:58:34.389
You'll get your cut.

00:58:34.789 --> 00:58:35.210
That part.

00:58:35.590 --> 00:58:36.530
No Grindr, folks.

00:58:36.570 --> 00:58:37.110
No Grindr.

00:58:37.130 --> 00:58:38.610
No Grindr.

00:58:38.650 --> 00:58:39.891
You won't see me on Grindr, guys.

00:58:39.911 --> 00:58:40.170
Sorry.

00:58:40.271 --> 00:58:40.831
My bad.

00:58:40.891 --> 00:58:42.010
You know, I just hear things.

00:58:42.030 --> 00:58:43.411
I'm like, okay, cool, whatever.

00:58:43.851 --> 00:58:46.672
Yeah, you were close, but not at all.

00:58:47.391 --> 00:58:47.632
Gotcha.

00:58:47.692 --> 00:58:49.472
Is her, like, the equivalent, like,

00:58:49.552 --> 00:58:50.693
the female version for Grindr?

00:58:53.010 --> 00:58:54.331
I guess you could say that.

00:58:56.552 --> 00:58:59.193
I wasn't using her for quick hookups,

00:58:59.233 --> 00:59:00.713
and I feel like that's what Grindr is.

00:59:00.813 --> 00:59:03.956
But direct me in the comments if I'm wrong,

00:59:03.976 --> 00:59:04.356
guys.

00:59:04.376 --> 00:59:05.096
I don't know.

00:59:06.817 --> 00:59:07.097
Yeah.

00:59:07.777 --> 00:59:08.237
Got you.

00:59:08.838 --> 00:59:10.539
I don't know these things.

00:59:10.599 --> 00:59:11.480
I stay away from them.

00:59:11.579 --> 00:59:12.079
I don't know.

00:59:12.099 --> 00:59:12.659
I don't know.

00:59:13.221 --> 00:59:13.960
You tried, though.

00:59:17.329 --> 00:59:18.449
A cat that I knew at the time,

00:59:18.869 --> 00:59:19.510
he was telling me,

00:59:19.550 --> 00:59:21.291
and I want to know if maybe

00:59:22.291 --> 00:59:23.052
it's the same thing that

00:59:23.092 --> 00:59:24.893
you probably experienced doing, you know,

00:59:24.932 --> 00:59:25.932
the online dating thing.

00:59:26.954 --> 00:59:28.873
But I guess there was also

00:59:28.914 --> 00:59:31.916
like racism also like in

00:59:31.976 --> 00:59:34.697
the LGBT community as well,

00:59:34.777 --> 00:59:36.257
where it's like, they'll say like,

00:59:37.197 --> 00:59:41.239
no fried chicken, no Chinese food.

00:59:42.039 --> 00:59:42.900
Have you heard about this stuff?

00:59:42.940 --> 00:59:43.001
No.

00:59:44.449 --> 00:59:45.068
I haven't.

00:59:45.128 --> 00:59:48.030
That's rude.

00:59:48.490 --> 00:59:50.472
Like on the dating, they'll say like, yeah,

00:59:50.552 --> 00:59:52.052
I'm looking for XX person,

00:59:52.333 --> 00:59:54.514
no fried chicken, no Chinese food.

00:59:55.054 --> 00:59:56.295
And it's like code for like.

00:59:58.536 --> 00:59:59.456
Yeah.

00:59:59.697 --> 01:00:01.217
If you see that on somebody's profile,

01:00:01.237 --> 01:00:02.719
just go ahead and click report.

01:00:05.340 --> 01:00:06.400
Go ahead and snitch on them

01:00:06.440 --> 01:00:07.581
real quick because we ain't

01:00:07.601 --> 01:00:08.641
got time for that in 2024.

01:00:08.641 --> 01:00:09.862
We're not doing that.

01:00:10.869 --> 01:00:11.771
I guess it's common.

01:00:12.291 --> 01:00:13.211
Well, the way he was saying it,

01:00:13.231 --> 01:00:14.072
he said it was kind of common,

01:00:14.112 --> 01:00:15.032
which I thought was interesting.

01:00:15.572 --> 01:00:16.172
That's crazy.

01:00:16.893 --> 01:00:18.054
Everybody doesn't eat fried chicken.

01:00:18.094 --> 01:00:18.795
It's just Black people.

01:00:18.815 --> 01:00:19.534
That's crazy.

01:00:20.135 --> 01:00:20.856
They're missing out.

01:00:21.255 --> 01:00:21.817
That's on them.

01:00:22.237 --> 01:00:22.956
That part.

01:00:23.056 --> 01:00:24.038
Well, I guess now for you,

01:00:24.097 --> 01:00:26.119
you're eating fried oyster

01:00:26.139 --> 01:00:27.300
mushrooms that taste like it?

01:00:28.019 --> 01:00:28.260
Yep.

01:00:28.400 --> 01:00:29.440
Fried chicken.

01:00:29.960 --> 01:00:30.641
Yeah, okay.

01:00:31.081 --> 01:00:31.922
She's so sad.

01:00:31.942 --> 01:00:32.822
She's like, fried chicken.

01:00:35.304 --> 01:00:35.784
Yeah.

01:00:36.284 --> 01:00:37.786
I do miss fried chicken, but it's okay,

01:00:37.806 --> 01:00:38.065
though.

01:00:38.465 --> 01:00:38.905
Low key.

01:00:39.047 --> 01:00:39.447
You know, hey,

01:00:40.523 --> 01:00:42.184
so you know I've definitely

01:00:42.224 --> 01:00:43.885
been on the plant-based tip

01:00:44.045 --> 01:00:45.505
you know or the veggie tip

01:00:46.226 --> 01:00:47.806
and I just want to share

01:00:47.847 --> 01:00:49.427
something with you right so

01:00:49.608 --> 01:00:50.389
and you can take it how you

01:00:50.429 --> 01:00:51.648
want I think it's

01:00:51.748 --> 01:00:53.250
definitely crucial to treat

01:00:53.289 --> 01:00:54.070
our bodies well because

01:00:54.090 --> 01:00:55.010
it's the only body we have

01:00:55.710 --> 01:00:56.891
but I think every once in a

01:00:56.931 --> 01:00:58.512
while I think it's okay to

01:00:58.532 --> 01:01:01.114
be like you know what I i

01:01:01.153 --> 01:01:02.074
haven't had fried chicken

01:01:02.114 --> 01:01:03.315
in three months I'm just

01:01:03.335 --> 01:01:05.916
gonna have six pieces three

01:01:05.956 --> 01:01:06.856
pieces of fried chicken I

01:01:06.876 --> 01:01:07.956
haven't had it in three months I just

01:01:09.335 --> 01:01:10.476
It's kind of like buying the skins,

01:01:10.516 --> 01:01:10.775
you know?

01:01:10.795 --> 01:01:13.396
You know what I'm saying?

01:01:13.438 --> 01:01:14.797
It's just like, you know what?

01:01:15.858 --> 01:01:16.079
Yeah,

01:01:16.159 --> 01:01:17.420
I don't think I could ever go back to

01:01:17.460 --> 01:01:17.639
meat.

01:01:17.739 --> 01:01:18.960
I think I would be so

01:01:19.121 --> 01:01:21.963
incredibly sick if I did.

01:01:22.802 --> 01:01:24.724
Meat was already making me sick.

01:01:24.784 --> 01:01:26.525
It was giving me really bad stomach aches,

01:01:26.545 --> 01:01:27.786
like worse than dairy.

01:01:27.846 --> 01:01:29.887
So I'm good on that.

01:01:30.208 --> 01:01:30.467
Okay.

01:01:31.481 --> 01:01:34.364
But yeah, do I miss my mom's meatloaf?

01:01:34.643 --> 01:01:35.443
Yeah, I do.

01:01:35.543 --> 01:01:36.885
I think about it, you know?

01:01:37.304 --> 01:01:37.965
Would I eat it?

01:01:38.025 --> 01:01:38.226
No.

01:01:38.806 --> 01:01:39.246
Got you.

01:01:39.346 --> 01:01:39.867
I got you.

01:01:40.547 --> 01:01:41.086
I got you.

01:01:43.329 --> 01:01:43.989
Shout out to my mom.

01:01:44.228 --> 01:01:44.588
What's up, mom?

01:01:44.608 --> 01:01:45.130
Shout out, mom.

01:01:45.449 --> 01:01:46.250
You want to give her my name

01:01:46.329 --> 01:01:47.291
or you're just, mom's good?

01:01:48.532 --> 01:01:49.112
Lady Keys.

01:01:49.132 --> 01:01:50.072
What's up, Lady Keys?

01:01:50.132 --> 01:01:50.833
Lady Keys.

01:01:51.072 --> 01:01:52.193
Shout out to you and the meatloaf.

01:01:52.554 --> 01:01:54.375
Yeah, she just got accepted to CBU.

01:01:54.414 --> 01:01:55.315
Shout out to my mama.

01:01:55.474 --> 01:01:56.416
I mean, music major.

01:01:57.376 --> 01:01:58.117
That's where I get it from.

01:01:58.802 --> 01:01:59.583
She's a music major?

01:02:00.184 --> 01:02:01.166
She's a music major now.

01:02:01.867 --> 01:02:04.791
Ooh, shout out to you, CBU.

01:02:05.873 --> 01:02:06.815
The reason why I mentioned

01:02:06.835 --> 01:02:09.478
that is because sometimes

01:02:10.119 --> 01:02:11.021
people do the vegan thing

01:02:11.061 --> 01:02:14.226
and they do it and it's kind of like...

01:02:15.362 --> 01:02:16.041
in my opinion,

01:02:16.543 --> 01:02:18.264
like they're torturing themselves.

01:02:19.023 --> 01:02:19.885
Like it feels like torture.

01:02:19.905 --> 01:02:22.045
Like, oh, fuck it, I have to eat this.

01:02:22.226 --> 01:02:23.626
I don't want to eat it, blah, blah, blah.

01:02:24.306 --> 01:02:25.827
And they feel restricted.

01:02:25.867 --> 01:02:26.547
And so I'm like, OK,

01:02:27.128 --> 01:02:28.048
you've disciplined yourself

01:02:28.088 --> 01:02:28.750
and you've done this.

01:02:29.349 --> 01:02:30.530
And every once in a while, you feel like,

01:02:30.550 --> 01:02:31.130
hey, you know what?

01:02:31.150 --> 01:02:33.672
I just want to have just

01:02:33.711 --> 01:02:34.313
this little thing.

01:02:36.146 --> 01:02:36.786
I think it's okay.

01:02:37.726 --> 01:02:39.847
I used to be super on the edge of like, no,

01:02:39.947 --> 01:02:42.248
you can't have anything ever, ever, ever.

01:02:42.867 --> 01:02:43.648
And I kind of got to the

01:02:43.688 --> 01:02:44.588
point where it's like, okay,

01:02:44.608 --> 01:02:45.849
like young miss,

01:02:45.869 --> 01:02:46.829
let's say if we're in Asia.

01:02:46.989 --> 01:02:47.210
Right.

01:02:47.369 --> 01:02:48.150
And they say, Hey man,

01:02:48.190 --> 01:02:51.951
like we have this specialized cheese,

01:02:52.291 --> 01:02:53.251
whatever that you're never

01:02:53.271 --> 01:02:54.211
going to try anywhere else.

01:02:54.271 --> 01:02:54.532
Sushi,

01:02:54.552 --> 01:02:55.132
you're never going to try it

01:02:55.152 --> 01:02:55.552
anywhere else.

01:02:56.373 --> 01:02:58.034
And we're only in Asia, blah, blah, blah.

01:02:58.414 --> 01:02:59.134
I'm like, you know what?

01:03:00.228 --> 01:03:02.028
Just for that experience, I'll try it.

01:03:02.148 --> 01:03:02.789
Maybe not that much,

01:03:02.829 --> 01:03:05.550
but I'll try it just for the experience.

01:03:06.431 --> 01:03:06.731
Yeah,

01:03:06.831 --> 01:03:08.570
I've had that thought thinking about

01:03:08.630 --> 01:03:09.492
traveling because I do want

01:03:09.512 --> 01:03:10.192
to travel more.

01:03:10.652 --> 01:03:13.753
I'm like, if I go to Korea, one,

01:03:13.914 --> 01:03:15.474
I'm nervous because it's like,

01:03:15.554 --> 01:03:17.614
I'm not going to know what

01:03:17.974 --> 01:03:19.255
it's saying on the menu.

01:03:19.275 --> 01:03:24.117
I'm going to need somebody

01:03:24.157 --> 01:03:26.418
to help me out so I don't

01:03:26.539 --> 01:03:27.518
order something and then it'll

01:03:27.947 --> 01:03:29.608
There's a big duck on my plate, you know.

01:03:31.028 --> 01:03:31.989
And a live octopus,

01:03:32.009 --> 01:03:33.090
an octopus that's still moving.

01:03:33.369 --> 01:03:34.190
Yeah, exactly.

01:03:34.251 --> 01:03:35.771
So I'm always nervous about that.

01:03:37.251 --> 01:03:38.313
But I do think about that.

01:03:38.353 --> 01:03:39.853
Like if I'm traveling, like, you know,

01:03:39.893 --> 01:03:40.974
this is an experience.

01:03:41.014 --> 01:03:41.695
Am I really going to

01:03:41.715 --> 01:03:44.697
withhold this amazing food for myself?

01:03:44.836 --> 01:03:46.177
And the answer is yes.

01:03:47.958 --> 01:03:48.659
I'll find a way.

01:03:49.630 --> 01:03:49.971
Yeah.

01:03:50.351 --> 01:03:51.492
And I'm not saying like I

01:03:51.652 --> 01:03:52.554
completely like indulge.

01:03:52.574 --> 01:03:53.335
I'm just saying like, you know,

01:03:53.355 --> 01:03:55.115
like maybe just a little bit here.

01:03:55.617 --> 01:03:56.878
And it's based on your reasoning.

01:03:56.918 --> 01:03:57.219
You know,

01:03:57.259 --> 01:03:58.320
if you're a vegan because you

01:03:58.360 --> 01:03:59.701
want to be healthy, that's different.

01:03:59.740 --> 01:04:01.543
You know, if you want to treat yourself,

01:04:01.583 --> 01:04:02.923
eat a little sun here and there.

01:04:04.244 --> 01:04:04.826
Cool.

01:04:04.985 --> 01:04:05.686
Enjoy your burger.

01:04:07.628 --> 01:04:09.710
But like if you're, you know,

01:04:09.831 --> 01:04:10.592
not eating because you

01:04:10.612 --> 01:04:11.793
don't like the treatment of animals.

01:04:12.681 --> 01:04:14.842
then that's something totally different.

01:04:16.043 --> 01:04:17.445
I think mine is a sprinkle of both.

01:04:18.804 --> 01:04:19.925
I saw those videos where

01:04:19.945 --> 01:04:21.527
they're killing chickens

01:04:21.626 --> 01:04:23.447
and stabbing cows.

01:04:23.867 --> 01:04:24.248
I'm good.

01:04:24.268 --> 01:04:26.409
I don't want to eat blood.

01:04:27.409 --> 01:04:28.110
I'm good off that.

01:04:28.170 --> 01:04:28.831
Y'all can have that.

01:04:29.510 --> 01:04:31.012
Fry it up at least.

01:04:31.112 --> 01:04:31.913
Get all the blood out.

01:04:32.512 --> 01:04:33.994
Y'all be eating rare steaks.

01:04:34.134 --> 01:04:34.934
I can't, bro.

01:04:35.014 --> 01:04:35.894
I just can't.

01:04:36.911 --> 01:04:38.532
That's the best way, medium rare.

01:04:39.054 --> 01:04:39.534
Yeah.

01:04:39.693 --> 01:04:40.914
Y'all like the taste of blood?

01:04:40.954 --> 01:04:41.936
That's crazy.

01:04:42.536 --> 01:04:43.697
That's where all the nutrients are.

01:04:44.338 --> 01:04:44.737
Okay.

01:04:46.659 --> 01:04:47.119
Enjoy.

01:04:49.382 --> 01:04:50.422
Enjoy it for the both of us

01:04:50.443 --> 01:04:51.443
because it couldn't be me.

01:04:51.963 --> 01:04:52.643
That part, don't worry.

01:04:52.684 --> 01:04:54.585
I don't indulge in that stuff.

01:04:54.646 --> 01:04:56.327
But when I did have a steak,

01:04:56.407 --> 01:04:58.088
medium rare was definitely the way to go,

01:04:58.409 --> 01:04:59.309
even though I was raised on

01:04:59.329 --> 01:05:01.090
well-done medium rare stuff.

01:05:01.751 --> 01:05:01.972
thing.

01:05:02.552 --> 01:05:04.152
But I'm not sure if you've

01:05:04.172 --> 01:05:04.952
ever heard of a gentleman

01:05:04.972 --> 01:05:06.713
called Yaki Awakens, what he goes by.

01:05:06.733 --> 01:05:08.074
I haven't.

01:05:08.393 --> 01:05:09.514
But I would check him out.

01:05:09.554 --> 01:05:10.835
He's a herbalist,

01:05:11.614 --> 01:05:13.034
good brother from Missouri.

01:05:13.735 --> 01:05:14.576
Check him out.

01:05:14.615 --> 01:05:15.536
I'll shoot him your info.

01:05:15.596 --> 01:05:16.835
I'll shoot his info to you,

01:05:16.856 --> 01:05:17.697
but he's a good guy to

01:05:17.717 --> 01:05:18.836
check out for health

01:05:18.856 --> 01:05:20.197
healing and stuff and

01:05:20.217 --> 01:05:21.077
information like that.

01:05:21.818 --> 01:05:22.458
Yes, please do.

01:05:23.237 --> 01:05:23.858
But young miss,

01:05:23.938 --> 01:05:24.719
I want to thank you for

01:05:24.759 --> 01:05:25.679
being on The Empire.

01:05:27.320 --> 01:05:32.784
Let's say 100 years passed by,

01:05:32.784 --> 01:05:35.585
200 years passed by, half a millennia,

01:05:35.706 --> 01:05:37.126
which is 500 years passed by.

01:05:37.967 --> 01:05:38.608
What would you like your

01:05:38.728 --> 01:05:40.789
empire to look like, whether music,

01:05:41.250 --> 01:05:43.632
education, family, vegan life?

01:05:44.152 --> 01:05:44.672
What would you like your

01:05:44.773 --> 01:05:47.855
empire to look like 500 years from today?

01:05:47.875 --> 01:05:49.976
Wow.

01:05:53.085 --> 01:05:54.887
I would just like to leave a

01:05:54.967 --> 01:05:56.688
mark some way.

01:05:56.748 --> 01:05:58.570
People can look back and say, oh,

01:05:58.690 --> 01:06:01.192
she made a difference somehow.

01:06:02.793 --> 01:06:03.914
That's in everything I do,

01:06:04.494 --> 01:06:07.797
whether it's education, my music,

01:06:08.918 --> 01:06:10.679
my DJing, whatever I do.

01:06:12.719 --> 01:06:13.940
YOLO, you only live once.

01:06:15.722 --> 01:06:15.922
Really,

01:06:16.322 --> 01:06:18.023
I'm just here trying to make my mark.

01:06:18.985 --> 01:06:19.706
I don't know if it's going

01:06:19.726 --> 01:06:21.387
to be a small one or a big one, but

01:06:22.239 --> 01:06:22.820
I'm trying to leave

01:06:22.840 --> 01:06:24.041
something at this point.

01:06:24.101 --> 01:06:25.623
So hopefully it's a big one.

01:06:25.643 --> 01:06:26.684
Hopefully I change lives.

01:06:26.704 --> 01:06:28.686
You know, that's, that's, that's the goal.

01:06:31.487 --> 01:06:32.047
I love that.

01:06:32.528 --> 01:06:33.329
And sometimes all you need

01:06:33.349 --> 01:06:34.269
to do is just change one

01:06:34.309 --> 01:06:37.992
life and it can do a lot, you know,

01:06:38.534 --> 01:06:40.735
Big Miss, I want to thank you again.

01:06:40.755 --> 01:06:41.976
One more time for me on the empire.

01:06:42.016 --> 01:06:42.998
Can you please let everybody

01:06:43.038 --> 01:06:45.639
know how they can find you, support you,

01:06:46.340 --> 01:06:47.981
work with you, all that good jazz.

01:06:48.001 --> 01:06:48.601
Can you let everybody know

01:06:48.621 --> 01:06:49.163
how they can do that?

01:06:49.554 --> 01:06:50.454
Yes, of course.

01:06:51.833 --> 01:06:52.394

Try to figure it out.

01:07:02.456 --> 01:07:03.197
I'm getting older.

01:07:03.257 --> 01:07:04.117

01:07:04.177 --> 01:07:05.077

01:07:13.438 --> 01:07:14.119
